Chapter 67

Sonia raised her eyebrows. “If you’re looking for Miss Gray, why are you here? Isn’t she with you?” “Exactly!” Charles agreed, crossing his arms.

questioned in surprise as the smile slipped from his face, “Are you serious?”

Looking at Toby, Sonia continued, “Are you looking for her here because you think we hid her?”

Toby met her gaze. “She never returned

from the restroom, and the only people here that have bad blood with her are

Annoyed, Charles barked a laugh. “You

think we hid her because we have

issues with her? How stupid do you

think we are? Everyone knows we’d be

the foremost suspects if something
