When Sharon got home she was drained after the meeting. She made sure all the doors were securely locked. Then she went upstairs to take a nice hot bath. And think about the day's events. She sat candles around the room and lit them. Then she put some nice bath salts in the tub and ran her bath. She slipped out of her clothes turned off the light and slipped into the tub of hot water. She sank down deeper and deeper and let her mind drift. She imagined Adam being there with her, messaging her shoulders and running his hands over her body. She was thinking about his soft kiss. How he would after their bath carry her to the bed and gently dry her off his eyes traveling the length of her body. Before they eased into love making.
Sharon bolted up right in the tub so fast she splashed water out onto the floor. Post cards she said out loud. Chili, China, Australia. Oh my goodness! Those were some of the same places Faith had received post cards from her Grandpa and Grandma. That would be an awful big coincidence. Sharon jumped from the tub threw on her robe and headed for the phone. She had to call Faith. After words with Nick she heard her daughters' sweet voice. Hey mom are you ok? Yes Sharon assured her. I was just thinking about your pretty post cards and wanted to know where they were from. Mom I told you already, Faith said. I know honey but I forgot can you look at them and tell me again. Sure mom I will get them. A few moments later Faiths voice was back on the phone. I'm not sure if I can say the names mom. Then spell them for me sweetie. One is Chili, one says N-i-g-e-r one is A-u-s-t-r-a-l-i-a Faith spelled. France. Ok honey that's enough. Thank you for helping me. I will see you for our movie date this weekend sweetie. Ok bye mom I love you.
So, it was Victor who found out about the motorcycle man Steve. How far did Victor get on his investigation? Does he already know what I will find out in a few days? Why wouldn't he tell us if there was a slight possibility Adam survived. Sharon shook her head that's a silly question she already knew the answer. Victor hates his youngest son because they are so much alike. Or at least he tries to real hard. Sharon believed that secretly Victor was proud of Adam. And Victor hated that Adam and Sharon loved each other so much.
Sharon had been married to Victor a couple of times business only. Adam understood this both times had been because of Nick trying to jerk her around about Faith or just plain bullying her. She never slept with him as a matter of fact the first time they were married Victor was in jail. Sharon had gone to Newman Enterprises to see Adam and they ended up spending the night making love in Victor's office. When Victor found out he blew a gasket. But Victor had manipulated her and made her think that marrying him was the only way. It was never about love or lust for them just business. It really ruined their relationship that coupled with her love for the son he seemed to hate so badly. She was even more hopeful now that the man who died at the crash wasn't Adam. Victor was trying to keep Steve's family from looking for him.
She picked up the phone again and called Jerry. She told him what she had found out about the post cards. Very interesting Jerry said. Victor may be behind this whole rat chase. I was just fixing to call you Sharon. My friend at the DMV is getting close to the owner of the Ford that picked up the injured man. He lives somewhere in Colorado. Sharon was so happy to hear this bit of information. Jerry if you find out the records match and Steve is the one who died call me at once. When your friend finds out where the person is in Colorado I want to go with you to talk to them. Sure mam anything you want. You are paying for this venture and you have so much to gain. Thanks Jerry talk to you soon she said and they hung up.
It was hard for Joe to sleep each time he closed his eyes the beauty was there. He had also seen a small child a boy. Could this be his son? There was also a light brown headed woman. She was pretty enough but he knew he had no feelings for her and wasn't attracted to her at all. She was continually saying if you loved me. You would do this or that. Was she talking to me? It was all so weird. Why would any man have to continually prove himself over and over to another person? He fit so easy and well with the blond he couldn't imagine needing any other woman in his life. If only he could remember her name and if she was his or not. He had told Dusty all about the beautiful Blond woman of his dreams. Dusty said, I think you are just fantasizing friend. But Joe didn't think so. He believed that his memory was returning slowly. Too slowly for Joe but he couldn't make it happen any faster at least not without any information about who he truly was. Adam drifted off to sleep with thoughts of the woman of his dreams on his mind hoping he would dream of her again.
