Grantham nodded. “We’re losin’ money,” he said. “I’m goin’ along right now to have it out with him.
Before I see him I wanted to know about the Perminger girl. She all right?”
Carrie smiled. “Sure she’s all right.”
Grantham stroked his jaw with a hand that shook a little. “That dame may be very useful to us if Raven doesn’t behave,” he said. “You understand that, don’t you?”
Carrie nodded.
“Where is she?”
“Upstairs. Do you want to see her?”
Grantham hesitated, then he stood up. “No. It’s better not for me to see her yet. I’m relyin’ on you, Carrie.
You’ve got to keep her the way we want herdon’t forget that.”
“It’s all right.”
