Detective George was lost in thought, his mind momentarily transported to a reality where his companion was physically present beside him. He caught himself, a wistful smile playing at the corners of his lips as he spoke into the phone, "You are truly unique.

"Are we still discussing this, Mrs. Creston?" he asked, his tone firm but measured, his eyes locked on hers with a hint of exasperation. "I think we've said enough. Let's not forget, I don't owe you anything. Your husband, Mr. Creston was kind enough to help me in my time of need, but this is a professional matter, and we shouldn't mix the two."
