Western Isles Resort & Spa.

That morning, the company staff gathered for breakfast, but neither Citrine nor Sebastian Vesper was anywhere to be seen.

Someone finally turned to Carlotta Yarbrough. "Carlotta, have you seen President Carmichael or Mr. Vesper since last night? They didn't come down this morning either."

Carlotta had already found their absence strange. Hearing the question, she frowned slightly and offered a guess.

"Maybe they're still asleep."

She pulled her phone from her pocket and dialed Citrine's number.

A moment later, an icy automated message played: "Sorry, the number you are trying to reach is currently unavailable."

Carlotta's frown deepened. She glanced around at the others and asked, "Does anyone have Mr. Vesper's number?"

Everyone shook their heads.

After a while, someone tried to reassure her. "Don't worry, Carlotta. Since neither President Carmichael nor Mr. Vesper is here, they're probably together. With Mr. Vesper around, I'm sure nothing's wrong."

Carlotta let out a breath, comforted for now.

Still, after breakfast, she decided to check if the two were in their rooms.
