Lois has, with the help of a few friends really gotten herself involved in quite the case. Now let's see what happens!

Comments, rocks and constructive thoughts are always appreciated! peep

A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.

You want rocks? Why?

I just love this chapter. The health insurance fraud is a chilling scenario. You described it so well. I'm glad Lois has people looking out for her - Perry, Henderson, Bobby and now Paul, apparently. I wonder what his role is going b to be.

What is it Clark is not telling Lois?

Glad to see that Lois has people looking out for her while Clark is away. It would be very lonely if she had to face his absence alone. sad Poor Clark sounds so sad. mecry

Thanks for the comment!

Lois has friends, but she was so overwhelmed by ...everything that she crawled into a shell and shut the door after her. It isn't strange that it takes a "love letter" from far away to knock open the door and pull her out.

The insurance fraud investigation is impossible for her to resist and yes, it is a chilling scenario.

Yeah, Paul, what is he doing here? huh

Thanks for another great chapter! The plot definitely thickens with the health insurance fraud and Intergang. Lois is thankfully back being the best investigative journalist in New Troy but I hope she hasn’t bitten off more than she can chew. I know she took care of herself before Superman came on the scene but she needs to be extra careful. I wonder if Paul is somehow the protection that Henderson and Reed planned.

Clark seemed sad. Being separated from everyone he loves is heartbreaking. I hope he comes home soon but I’m sure it’s a long ways off.

I’m hoping I can read more tonight. I love this story! Thank you!

But she had uncovered that this racket had made enough profit to be pursued at a federal level.
I think this makes is worthy! Nice detail!

Lois couldn’t get her money back, but she was sure going to make those crooks pay!
This is so in character!

Quote
It was disappointing that Clark’s old friend, Dr. Pete Ross, couldn’t provide any assistance, even though he wanted to
I love seeing Pete show up in stories! So fun!

Quote
Inspector Henderson and Detective Reed had grudgingly provided some crumbs of information,
I also just love Detective Reed! We don't get enough of her.

Quote
A prickly feeling went down her back.
I love when her reporter's intuition shows up!

“Impressive Eduardo. I had no idea you knew so much about French art.” Lois said with a smile.
He shrugged, smiled and said, “Hey, you learn a lot on the city beat!
This is such a cute interaction! We need more of Eduardo, too.

the heady fragrances of Northern Italian cuisine, garlic, tomatoes, and a touch of basil, tickled her nose and caused her empty stomach to growl in anticipation
This is so evocative - I wasn't even hungry but now I want Italian!

Quote
I was the last patient in the waiting area. The company representative, a Mr. Simcoe, was pushing him to start seeing patients for them again.
What are the odds that Molly would walk into this exchange??? It's exactly how this sort of thing happens, though! These kinds of coincidences get people caught all the time.

“Lobster? Seriously? When are you going to stop eating meat? Once upon a time that poor crustacean was minding his own business scuttling across the ocean floor. Now he’s your lunch!”
I still eat meat, but I've been eating less and less, exactly for reasons like this above. It's nice to see this perspective given some representation.

Not long after breaking parole, The Prankster was arrested in Gotham City. He was found tied to a lamppost and babbling to the policemen on the scene to protect him from ‘The Bat.’
rotflol I really love abusing Griffin!

Quote
"He’s giving vigilantes a bad rap.”
Really interesting to compare Bats and Supes his way!

Quote
Why pay insurance premiums if I must pay the full cost of the doctor’s bill anyway?
I feel like this is so topical these days!

Quote
“Because this is a newspaper, not Waikiki Beach!”
This sounds so in character!

Quote
Sweet thoughts of Clark slipped unbidden into her mind.
Awww

Quote
Speaking of which, did you find a new medical insurance provider?
I'm so glad that Lois helped them avoid the bad guys!

Quote
Lois groaned. If another person mentioned Clark’s absence, she was going to scream.
It's so tough on her because no one even knows what they're really saying when they bring up Superman.

Quote
Since Zara is such a brave pilot, perhaps she is proving to be the leader New Krypton needs and not her fiancé.
Love that she's reading between the lines here!

Quote
He was in a war and wanted to keep the worst evidence of that war as far from her as possible, so he talked about grapes rather than a certain female pilot from a noble Kryptonian family.
That's so like Clark!

Quote
Please? Oh brother, the last time Perry used that word she had gone undercover in a coal processing plant in the hills of West Virginia.
lol

Fun cliffhanger here!

Exactly! Paul has stepped back into Lois' life. As if things aren't bad enough! shock

It would be lonely for her to face Clark's absence alone. That's what good, sincere friends are for.

Hi there! Thanks so much for commenting! wave

Yes, Lois has dealt with some pretty bad characters in the past, but the critters behind this insurance fraud are on a whole different class from those guys! They play for keeps as you will discover later in the story. Also, Henderson and Reed care about Lois. Clark deserves to come home to his lady in the same shape she was when he departed.
