Vespera handed Reba a ss of orange juice. "Felicia also texted me early in the moming."
Theypared the recording with the text, and the contents matched.
Tina was drunk and speaking incoherently when another voice suddenly asked where Quentin was. The voice didn''t sound like Felicia and probably belonged to one of the maids at home
Tina muttered drunkenly as if she were talking to herself "ch? Who? Quentin?
She let out a chuckle before rambling. "A good ce. I hid him in a nice little spot. Not too shabby. Pretty. A small hill can see clouds in the distance.. Flowers
"Oh, right. There''s a small cabin too. I wonder if the water in the pond is too cold for him. Don''t worry! No one will find that ce,"
Based on Tina''s drunken ramblings, Telicia deduced that the hidden spot was either in the mountains or in the vige.
Vespera spoke up. "Felicia sald Quentin''s from Ashford, but Tins didn''t say chat."
Reba exined, "The details I mailed to Felicia included quentin''s basic information. He''s definitely from Ashford
“Tina transferred schools to Ashford in the second half of her first year in high school. I heard she caused some trouble at a school In Halewick by scratching a young woman''s face. That youngdy came from a prominent family, so the Sowles had no choice but to hide Tina away in Ashdend."
Vespera finally understood why Tina transferred schools back then. "I see.
Bebecarpt repeating Tina''s drunken ramblings "A hill? Sounds like somewhere in the mountains."
Vespera shook her head. "Doesn''t sound like a mountain to me. If it were in the mountains, she wouldn''t have used the phrase "a hil" to describe the ce," Both of them were at a loss Reba had grown up in a city. As for Vespera, she lived with Natalie in fishing vige by the sea. While there were mountains nearby, Vespera had never seen such scenery before.
a brilliant guy. I''m sure someone wonders where he is since he''s gone
Vespera pondered for amohet. "Maybe we can look for Quentin''s friends. He seems like a br missing for years.
As soon as Vespera brought that app, Reba snapped her fingers. "Yes, there''s
a young woman. After Quentin went missing, she dropped out of school.
"I heard they were really close and probably dated in their teens. We should find this young woman. She might know something."
Vespera agreed. "They''re both from Ashford. I''m sure she knows better than we do about what Tina meant
Reba spoke up. "I''s Saturday tomorrow, Let''s head to Ashford,"
Vespera was surprised. "Tomorrow?"
"Oh? Are you world ng on Saturday as well?"
"No, I''m por working tomorrow. Alright, we''ll go to Ashford tomorrow."
Vespera became more determined. So what it one had a date with Roxanne in Ashford?
Vespera''s
ns were very important to her as well. There was a chance she might not even encounter Dominie.
So what if she did run into him while he was on his date in Ashford? Would he really forbid Vespera from visiting Ashford on a Saturday?
