“I have a message from the chief administrator at the hospital.” Ryker ripped out the words in annoyance. “They left one at the house, too.”
“What is this about?” Jacques inquired. “Does this have anything to do with my granddaughter?”
“I don’t know,” he responded, sounding curt. “But I assure you, Kai is my daughter. There were other girls born on that day. This has nothing to do with us.”
Jacques nodded. “I suppose they could be contacting everyone born on that day.”

Jacques shook his head. “I think you should meet with them face-to-face.”
