“No.”
“Then why is it here?”
“I honestly don’t know.”
Near the back of the packet was an email printout. It was from someone named Daniel Price at Northshore Property Consulting. Michael, Thanks again for sending the preliminary documents. Once title adjustment is completed, we can move forward with the lending scenario we discussed. Per your mother’s note, I understand timing is important because the Evanston investment window closes this quarter. Let me know when Emily has signed.
“Your mother’s note?”
Michael reached for the page.
“What?”
“I never knew about this.”
“Did Linda speak to the consultant?”
“I don’t know.”
“You gave her the consultant’s name?”
“I mentioned the idea.”
“When?”
“A month ago.”

“I’m calling them.”
“Now?”
“Yes.”
After I explained that I owned the property referenced in one of their valuation reports, she transferred me to Daniel Price. Then his voice changed.
