Suddenly, someone came to mind—a person Fiona had been completely overlooking.

Pearl.

As soon as the thought hit her, Fiona let the frostiness on her face fade, just a bit. But she still didn't say anything to Alice. She had no desire to keep talking about this, and there was no way she'd be the one to admit anything.
