Chapter 111
Nick was no fool. If I miss this hint, I might as well retire tonight. The First Lady clearly wants to stay undercover–why else would she teach at this no–name herbal medicine school? With everyone watching, her message is crystal clear. Nick
thought.
“You give me too much credit. Ms. Everett,” Marshall said hastily. “Just following protocol–no special treatment here.”
If the First Lady wants anonymity, I’ll play dumb till curtain call, he thought
“Really?” Brynn was still a little suspicious.
Nick nodded repeatedly, practically swearing. “Naturally.”
Brynn wasn’t entirely convinced, but with Nick’s firm denial and the crowd still watching, she let it drop–for now. “Maybe I’m just being paranoid, she thought.
