Asher ignores what Irish is trying to get at with that comment of hers.
Keeping quiet, he regards her contemplatively instead. She looks drained and exhausted. Thoughtfully, he inquires, "If you two are here and so is your elder brother, is Charlie the only one left looking after your business?"
"Yeah. Not like we can let our other relatives take charge. Most of them were on Grandfather's side just some time ago. They might give more problems than help," Irish answered, properly acting like the eldest daughter for once.
"How's the investigation going on?"
"Not sure. Good, I guess."
He narrows his eyes at her. That can't be right. She and the others always make it a point to know about everything and anything, especially when it comes to this particular matter. Her know-it-all nature should have known what the investigation is doing right now.
That's unless Irish keeping information from Asher. That would make more sense.
