Chapter 7 - Caroline Sends Victoria a Video
Victoria’s phone buzzed.
A video message from Caroline.
Caroline stood in the mansion’s garage.
“Before you decide I’m the villain, ask Andrew why he was planning to
take Lily to Vermont tonight.”
Victoria stared at him.
Andrew went still.
Caroline continued.
“He already arranged the car. He already packed documents. He was going
to bring Lily to Claire without telling you.”
The video ended.
Victoria’s face changed.
“Is that true?”
Andrew answered carefully.
“Partly.”
He had arranged a car.
He had planned to meet the investigator in Vermont the following
morning.
But not with Lily.
The documents were Claire’s case files.
The pink suitcase was not his.
Victoria wanted to believe him.
Then security found a printed itinerary in Andrew’s study.
Three passengers.
Andrew Blake.
Victoria Blake.
Lily Blake.
Departure: 11:30 p.m.
Andrew stared.
“I didn’t print that.”

Someone had constructed a story convincing enough to frighten Lily and
Victoria at the same time.
