She had come there looking for Carter to tell him what she\u2019d had, or, more correctly, hadn\u2019t learned about Gianna Matisse. She found Carter\u2019s interest in the beauty interesting, to say the least. It made her wonder if he was interested in her for security reasons or personal ones. Although Kelsey was married to Knuckles and she loved him, she\u2019d always thought her captain was one fine-ass man.<\/p>\n

One that she\u2019d be willing to try if he showed her any attention. Which he hadn\u2019t. But a woman can dream. When Kelsey arrived at Romans, she went to the counter. \u201cWhat can I get for you, Kelsey?\u201d \u201cIs the Skipper here?\u201d \u201cHe\u2019s in his office.\u201d \u201cThanks,\u201d she said and began making her way through the crowd of sports gamblers to the office. She knocked on the door. \u201cCome!\u201d Kelsey entered the office and found Carter sitting behind his desk.<\/p>\n

That is one fine-ass man, she thought, looking at Carter, who was dressed in a midnight-blue, tailored-fit Havana suit. \u201cHey, Skipper.\u201d \u201cWhat\u2019s up, Kelsey?\u201d Carter asked and was a little surprised to see her there. \u201cWhat brings you here?\u201d \u201cI came to see you.\u201d \u201cReally?\u201d \u201cYes, really,\u201d Kelsey said, sitting in front of his desk. \u201cAnd why is that?\u201d \u201cYou told me you wanted me to look into Gianna Matisse.\u201d Kelsey smiled when Carter sat up a little straighter.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat did you find out?\u201d \u201cWhat I found out is that Gianna Matisse is a ghost.\u201d \u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d \u201cNear as I can tell, before a year or two ago, Gianna Matisse didn\u2019t exist.\u201d \u201cThanks,\u201d he said, but he was intrigued. Kelsey was surprised by his reaction.<\/p>\n

However, it confirmed her suspicion that his interest in Gianna Matisse was personal. It gave her hope that she might have a chance. \u201cAnything else you need me to do for you, Skipper?\u201d \u201cYeah.\u201d Carter paused. \u201cDiscreetly get a picture of her.\u201d He held up one finger. \u201cDiscreetly, Kelsey. Ghosts tend to be camera shy.\u201d Kelsey saluted and stood up. \u201cUnderstood, Skipper.\u201d With that, Kelsey returned to Knuckles\u2019s gambling spot. When she arrived, she looked around until she spotted her.<\/p>\n

Channel 4 news anchor Carmen Taylor heard that a friend of hers has died of sudden arrhythmic death syndrome, which is an unexpected death from cardiac arrest that occurs when the heart stops pumping blood, preventing breathing, and depriving the brain of oxygen. Carmen attended the funeral. She had moved back to New York after she filed for divorce from her husband, Marcus Douglas.<\/p>\n

Although Carmen loved him, she wanted a divorce because he was never home. That, and she believed that he was having an affair with his law partner, Tiffanie Powers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
