"You look tired Robby".
That voice was strangely familiar to Robert, he turned his head slightly and to his suprise there stood none other than Constance Townly one of his old WSB partners. Robert stood up from his chair in the interrogation room in the Washington office of Interpol.
"Connie, long time no see what brings you here?".
Connie walked across the room to Robert noticing the dark circles around his eyes, obviously he hadn't slept in days. This whole thing was ridiculous Connie thought to herself Robert was far too honorable to ever break someone out of prison even Holly whom she knew he once loved very much.
"Robby, I heard a nasty rumor that you were being detained here so i decided to come check it out for myself".
Robert laughed aloud
"No rumor Connie dear I am suspect numero uno in this caper".
"Robby I hate to ask this but did you do it?"
Robert sat back down at the interrogation table and looked Connie in the eyes and said
"No Luv I didn't do it, if i had been gonna break her out why would I have turned her in to begin with?".
"Robby there are two guards at the jail in the Markham Islands who identified you as the gunman who came in and took Holly". T
hat part was what frightened Robert the most, he knew he hadn't done it yet people were willing to say he did but why.
"Connie, has she been spotted anywhere, at an airport or boarding a boat, anything?".
Connie shook her head negatively noticing the concern on her old friends face.
"Look Connie, you know i didn't do this but someone has gone to a lot of trouble to make it look like I did, and what puzzles me the most is was Holly involved in planning this whole thing to get back at me for turning her in or did someone take her against her will. not that she wouldn't have been willing to leave that jail but what if someone took her who means to harm her?"
Constance sighed aloud she was dreading telling Robert what she had found out this afternoon before coming here.
"Robby, look I did some poking around at the WSB headquarters today and i found out some very interesting bits of info".
Robert was curious now, the look on Connies face told him it was not good news.
"The confidential file i found on Cryllium industries contained some bank records thats links the company to the Cassadines".
"The Cassadines?"Robert asked.
"Yes millions of dollars were dumped into the company from the Cassadine accounts over the last five years".
Robert stood and paced the room wondering if Holly had known this company was linked to the Cassadines and if she had did she do it willingly.
"Connie, can you do me a favor and see what you can find on Hollys activities over the past ten years or so?".
Connie pulled a file out of her briefcase and put it on the table.
"Already ahead of you Robby, there is some pretty interesting reading here".
Robert picked up the file and started reading, it was fairly brief actually Holly had spent several years in Sydney operating an Art gallery financed with money she scammed from a guy named Bill Eckert. She had flown to the Markham Islands in the fall of 2005 and had not touched any money in her accounts since then.
"Connie this makes no sense, there isn't even a credit card charge here and what about her story of needing money because her husband invested everything in Cryllium and who is this supposed husband there is none mentioned as of October 2005".
"Robby I know, this whole thing is beginning to sound very suspicious to me".
Robert remembered the look on Hollys face when he first saw her in the hospital corridor in Port Charles, she smiled that beautiful smile and rushed to him like she was going to hug him and then she stopped and her face became clouded as if she were a stranger.
"Connie?"
"Yes Robert?"
"Can you get me out of here?".
Connie stood up putting the file back in her briefcase and smiled at Robert and said
"Well I thought you were never going to ask Robby, I have a plane leaving Dulles in two hours and we are going to be on it".
Connie turned and walked out the door leaving Robert puzzled as to what she had planned.
