Code Breakers: Delta
Page 22
Later that night, Gabe and the other guests having left, Gerry and Petal consummated their marriage and planned their future. By planning nothing at all.
“It’s time we just lived,” Petal said, laying her head against his chest, her finger outlining the scar from the bullet. “Just you and me, together, living, no more craziness.”
“I can’t agree more,” Gerry said.
But as they lay there, in pure bliss, a thought in the back of Gerry’s mind refused to go away. The numbers, Jess… 5-9-2-1-5-8-3-1-5-7-4-1.
Was she really…?
He ignored it.
Jess would just have to be a mystery for someone else—his job was done.
***
Outside, behind the house, Jess opened her eyes and removed herself from the hidden network. Gerry’s thoughts about her echoed in her mind and dissipated until there were no more. Jess looked at her index finger and the numbers and thought of Nolan.
He would have been so proud of their son.
The Family would live on—in good hands.
