The ride in the older model Jeep had been hot and humid and she could hardly wait for it to be over. She glanced up at Dr. Liew in the passenger seat. He didn’t seem phased. The driver who’d picked them up from the airport was an employee of the plantation and seemed to be a local. He probably didn’t give the weather a second thought. But Jean had thought of nothing else for the last hour, ever since they’d left the terminal at Phuket Island’s airport. She glanced at the rearview mirror to see the driver looking at her, yet again. “How long did you say to the plantation?” Jean asked. His eyes smiled at her. “Almost there,” he said. She’d taken off the business jacket at the airport and now fluffed the front of her silk blouse for some air. The pearl necklace rustled over the top of the shiny cream fabric. Wearing silk in the tropics had obviously been the wrong decision but it was still business–high-end business at that. “Are you feeling okay?” Dr. Liew said, turning to her.
