Sally peered through the peephole and noticed a woman standing outside the door with a lunchbox. The woman didn't ring the doorbell, but her voice traveled clearly through the door.

“Ms. Loake, I know you're inside. Please open the door.”

After a brief moment of hesitation, Sally opened the door and looked at Genevieve, who was clad in a coat. “How did you know I was here?”

Genevieve smiled. “The most dangerous place is sometimes the safest.”

Sally pursed her lips slightly. Then, she walked over to sit across from Genevieve.
