/"Ricardo?/" He turned to the young man quickly /"Where is Miss Anderson?/" he asked pointedly.
/"Up on deck, sir, she was on the loungers about five minutes ago./" The young man nodded his way, receiving a pat on the shoulder as way of thanks and Jake headed for the stairs to the upper deck. It was early even for an early riser like Emma, suggesting she had probably waited on him all night and that didn’t make him happy at all. She would be as tired as him.
