“So what do you say?” Melody tilted her head. “Have we scared you off?”
Annie took a deep breath. “I’ll sit in on the meeting, but I have to be honest. I don’t know whether I can help or not.”
Melody nodded. “I understand. I think the more idea people we have reviewing the finances the better off we’ll be. Thanks for agreeing to attend.”
“Thank you for inviting me.” Annie eased back in her chair, the tension draining from her body.
Melody picked up the folder and held it out. “Maybe you’d like to look this over.”
Before Annie could take the folder, Ian reached over and snatched it. “I know you have another meeting to go to, so why don’t you let me take this down to my office and go over it with Annie? Scott will be coming to my office to meet Annie, anyway.”
A strange look passed between Ian and Melody before she finally smiled. “Sure. If that’s what you want to do.”
“Yeah. That’ll work out best.” Ian stood and looked down at Annie. “Ready?”
“Okay.” Annie stood and turned to Melody. “Thanks again for including me in the project.”
Melody walked around her desk and gave Annie a hug. “We’re glad to have you. Keep me informed about the job.”
“I will. Talk to you later.”
“I’ll be praying for your upcoming meeting and your job.” Melody looked as though she wanted to say something else, but she stood there with what appeared to be a forced smile.
Annie sensed friction between Melody and Ian. The uneasy feeling Annie had experienced earlier returned as she followed Ian to the door. She wished she had more time to spend with Melody, but it wasn’t going to happen today.
They’d barely been here ten minutes, and already Ian was rushing off and insisting that she go with him. Understanding dawned. Melody’s request was definitely not Ian’s idea. He didn’t trust her to look over the finances without some supervision. The realization pierced her heart. But could she blame him? She’d stolen from him to fund her drug habit. She would not only have to earn his respect again, but his trust, as well.
