From the other
side of the road, Fernando watched Brett leave the Spice Experience. There was
no doubt about it, he was trying to win Isabella’s trust. Fernando shouldn’t have
hidden the formula in her apartment before Brett kidnapped him. But at the time
it had seemed a good idea. It would have stayed a good idea, if he had kept
quiet about hiding it.
At first, Brett
was sure that the formula existed only in Fernando’s head, but as the months
passed and Fernando didn’t come up with a successful solution, Brett had asked
Fernando where the formula was. Without thinking, Fernando had told him he’d
hidden it. He should have insisted he never wrote it down.
Shortly after his
fateful slip, Fernando was able to overpower his guard, take his gun, and
escape.
He’d found a room
to let and rented it under the name Carlos Montega, and now all that was on his
mind was to protect Isabella.
There was no
getting around it, he’d have to confront her again, find some way to convince
her of the truth of what he was saying.
