Page 93 of Stalking Steven
“OK, so you both ended up in the hospital.I almost did, too.And we almost got killed a couple of times.”
They both nodded.
“And we didn’t make any money.”
Rachel winced.Zachary smirked.
“But we saved Diana’s marriage.”And all right, it probably would have saved itself, since Steven wasn’t actually cheating.But that wasn’t all.“We saved three Russian girls from prostitution.We helped solve a murder and get the murderer sent to prison.We stopped a human trafficking ring.And on top of that, we saved a little dog from the pound.”
We all turned to look at her.She grinned back at us, stubby tail thumping.
“I think we did good,” I said.
Nobody said anything for a moment.Then Zachary lifted his glass of Dr.Pepper.“To us.”
I raised mine, and Rachel did the same.We clinked them together.“To us.”
And we all drank.To us, and to our next case.Hopefully not too far in the future.
