He's starting to doubt my actions and how I address him as Snow's father. Twice. He cleared his throat. "How's Klay Carver? Is he...still bothering you?" I bit my bottom lip and shook my head. "He's not contactinganymore. After the fire incident, he didn't contactagain." I saw how his eyes sharpened. "Do you think he was the one behind the fire incident?" "I don't know. I. blamed him but he fiercely denied that he did it." "I can help you, Kelly. Only if you allowto do so..." "You don't need to." I shook my head and sighed. "I already have someone investigating everything.
"Just...tellif you still need something." I just nodded. The atmosphere has be e awkward so I just squeezed my eyes closed and decided to sleep. Pierce just wokeup when we reached our destination.
I was in awe after I saw the place. The view is breathtaking.
Amazed, I got out of the car and watched the scenery in front of me. The road was elevated and from where I'm standing, I can see the breathtaking view of the sea and even the whole resort.

I followed Pierce and closed the door of the backseat after he got our bags. I led the way to the stairs down the resort.

"Too much information, Em," I heard Pierce say and walked past Emily.
