"What if he was caught?" He asked. 

"I thought about that too, Dad. But caught by who?" She wondered, pinching her nose bridge in frustration. 

Another possibility why Richard hadn't contacted them could be that he was caught before he could do what he had been sent to do. 

Michelle's palm turned sweaty at that thought. Not with the thought that Richard might be getting tortured at that moment, but because he could spill her name, revealing to whoever caught him that she was the one who sent him. 

If that happened, she was completely ruined. 

"Were you sure that Selene would be going home alone that night? What if someone had offered to give her a ride home?" She heard Robert ask her.
