Cara stares at the number. She didn't know what to say. It was Elizabeth that told her about that ATF agent Nick Fox. Jessica didn't even know his number, needless to say, Cara wanted her support. She already talked to Steven, both the DA and Ned Wakefield agreed it was okay to talk to Nick. Her heart beating, she dialed the number.
After listening to the boring elevator music, the thick voice of Nick Fox came on the line.
"Special Agent Nick Fox." Came the crisp cool voice.
"Hello, my name is Cara Walker. I was told to contact the head investigator."
"Cara. Listen to me. I been waiting to hear your call. But not here. Come meet me at Diamond's Pizza Place on Broadway tomorrow. Come alone."
Cara was confused.
"Um, okay. But I thought I needed to head to the main office?"
"I'll explain. You have a cell?"
"Yes."
"Okay. I'm going to text you my private cell. I'm going to send my partner, Agent Maria Santelli."
Maria? Wow. Cara had no clue. She knew she became a cop, but had no idea she was a ATF agent. Good for her.
"Okay. What time."
"Eleven. Where are you staying at?"
Cara told him Elizabeth's and Maria's apartment building.
"OK. There will be car waiting. Do NOT step outside that building until you get the text from Maria. I will see you tomorrow."
"Alright."
"Have a good day." Nick hangs up.
Cara's heart was beating a mile a minute. This was just the beginning. After she gets back, she had to give her statements. She wasn't looking forward to seeing Karl's face. Or "Uncle Carl." She hoped Winston and Brooke celebrated their wedding, not attend her funeral.
