“Mrs. Blakely, it’s time we headed back.” Evelyn had already vanished by the time Karen emerged,
carrying a blanket and a thermos.
Sabrina’s crushed expression had seemingly brought Evelyn some twisted satisfaction, and she had
left without further ado after accomplishing her goal.
Sabrina, on the other hand, sat motionless and speechless, her fists clenched tightly.
