"Mommy," Michael came over and looked seriously at Victoria, "Is your relationship with Uncle Hank still a secret?"
Victoria nodded: "Yes, it is."
Michael asked again, "So, what do you think Uncle Hank would do if he wanted to meet you?"
"He'd certainly call right away... Wait! No!" Victoria corrected herself before she'd even finished her sentence. "He would definitely come to find me directly!"
Kind of like that other day, when he drove straight to her just to whisk her away.
"That's exactly it!" Michael clapped his hands, "Uncle Hank would never be dumb enough to leave notes as evidence, inviting others to catch you two out!"
At this point, Victoria couldn't help but gasp at the implication.
"You all mean...this was a trap...someone set for us?" She ventured her own guess.
