The car turned into Southcreek Manor.

Briony and Stella stepped out, heading straight for the front door. Stella pressed the doorbell.

Carl answered. "Ms. Kensington, Dr. Joyner-please come in."

Once inside, Carl turned to Briony. "Ms. Kensington, Mr. Wentworth is waiting for you in his study upstairs."

Carl blinked. "Excuse me?"

"Oh, definitely! You have my sympathy." Stella sighed and flopped onto the sofa. "Working for a lunatic must be exhausting, huh?"

Carl was left speechless.
