After returning to the Youngblood residence, Jonathan asked Rosalie, “Are you disappointed today? We went to Sloummont but did not find any

Rosalie shook her head and replied, “No.”

“Are you not disappointed?” He seemed somewhat surprised.

“Because you’re willing to help me find clues and clear my name,” she said. “Whether you can help me to find useful clues or not, I’m just happy.”

The truth she wanted to know.

“I want to visit Granny in a couple of days,” she replied. Her hectic work schedule had allowed her only limited time to call and check on her grandmother. With a few days off, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to visit her grandmother.

“That’s good. Which day are you planning to go? I’ll go with you,” Jonathan said.
