Elizabeth suggested.
Bella gave a nod of agreement.
They left the hospital and made their way to the hotel.
Elizabeth accompanied Bella to her room and helped her settle into bed.
“Rest up for now.
Letknow if you need anything,” she said, preparing to leave the room.
However, as she turned to go, Bella stopped her.
“Do you know who Kori Thompson is?”
Elizabeth was startled and clenched her fists involuntarily, but quickly regained her composure.

ponder her next move.
As she entered the coffee shop, a group walked into the hotel.
The person leading them was Emil.
He was chatting with his companions when he glanced up and spotted someone he thought was Stella.
“Go on up without me,” he told his group.
“I've spotted someone | know.
I'll catch up after saying hello.
Once he finished speaking, he turned and made his way to the coffee shop.
But upon reaching it, he realized he had confused the wrong person.
