Eames opened the card in the enormous floral arrangement, but she already knew.
Twelve years ago her partner, Bobby Goren, fizzled out after a horrendous year: her kidnapping, his mother’s death, Brady. Time off became extended leave became early retirement. He rebuffed Alex’s attempts at communication until she finally gave up.
Eames buried herself in work to combat her anger and loneliness. She excelled at the civil service exams...which earned her the rank of captain. Ross, when he retired, lobbied hard for her appointment to MCS. Reading the card in her new office, she had to push back tears.
Captain Eames,
I told you so.
Goren.
