We last read Chapter 67, in which Wheldon confesses his motivation for wanting to cause a nuclear catastrophe. He wants to kill the President of the United States, who will be visiting the plant, and who, he feels, left Wheldon’s brother to die when they served in the military together. He also wants the disaster to be the nail in the coffin of a dying nuclear industry. He feels he will be helping the United States, by killing the nuclear industry before a major disaster occurs in the future. He also has hedged his company’s financial bets, by investing in industries that would benefit from a disaster, to soften the blow to StarPrime. While he tries to come up with a way to kill Beth and Harper without raising the suspicions of those who know their location, he orders his men to lock them in a room. The only piece of good news Beth receives is that Wheldon searched her luggage and didn’t find Sapphire Angel’s costume, mistakenly reinforcing his belief that Beth isn’t Sapphire Angel.
I'm so jeaIous of these two's abiIity to come up with pIans on the fIy. If I'm put in charge of IiteraIIy anything, I turn into a stammering, fumbIing mess. Let's hope that person mentioned at the end of the chapter is indeed OIiver; or at Ieast, someone eIse who's friendIy.
Conner and Beth are sure getting cIose.....Nick was too invasive anyway, and Bishop was a fuII-on drunk. Ethan seems more Iike just a reaIIy good friend than anything eIse.
Sapphire's going to show up one more time before the noveI's end, I'm sure. Then again.....if she couId stop him as Beth, that'd be REALLY impressive.
(I need to make my own characters (yes, characterS, not characteR) smarter, to be on your IeveI.....this is Iegit insane..... xD)
