The car turned into Southcreek Manor.

Briony and Stella stepped out, heading straight for the front door. Stella pressed the doorbell.

Carl answered. "Ms. Kensington, Dr. Joyner-please come in."

Carl blinked. "Excuse me?"

"Oh, definitely! You have my sympathy." Stella sighed and flopped onto the sofa. "Working for a lunatic must be exhausting, huh?"

Carl was left speechless.
