With a faint smile, Sonia answered, “Simple. We’re going to file a police report!”

Giving her a surprised look, Charles started, “Baby, didn’t you say—”

Meanwhile, Sonia pretended not to see the ridicule in Tina’s eyes and only applauded, a smile on her face. “Very good! You’ve made the right call, Miss Gray. Charles, since she has agreed, you should call the police and ask them to bring a hypnotist along when they come to investigate the case.”
