UnderCover Wedding
Chapter Fourteen
Two days later & a plane ride to California…
Rick & Kate were in their room at the bed & breakfast unpacking their things. Kate was still dealing with morning sickness but it wasn't as bad like the other morning. They talked to Martha & Alexis to let them know that they made it safely.
Alexis said, "Well this is my second day at the 12th. And already everybody is giving me strange looks & watching what they say around me."
"I knew it! It's working already. Thanks Alexis & keep us posted." Said Kate.
Rick said, "Keep them on their toes & make sure your cover doesn't get blown."
"Dad. Who do you think I am? Don't worry so much. I'll have more info to tell you guys later. So have fun & be careful." Said Alexis.
Kate looked at Rick & started laughing at his confused expression.
An hour later they were walking on the beach which is why they chose the bed & breakfast they were staying at. It has its own private beach.
They had lunch on the patio. They both had sandwiches that they really liked. Afterwards they explored the area of the town. It was a small town with a lot of history & stories that were told by business owners & people who lived there.
Around dinnertime Alexis called them back & said she had some info for them.
"From what I could gather, there's something going with the Mayor? I'm exactly sure what though? I think I should slow down a bit with researching." Said Alexis.
"Good job. Maybe you should for a few days. Get them off your trail." They both said.
Rick & Kate hung up & went to dinner downstairs.
Later that night…
Rick said, "Well whatever the Mayor is in to, he didn't seem like he was bad when I met him?"
"I'm sorry. I know you thought he was a good guy, but he might not be like you thought." Said Kate.
Rick kissed her & said, "It's not your fault. But I know now that I have to tread lightly when we go home."
Kate hugged him & snuggled next to him. Soon they were both asleep.
