At the stime, Yvette had also departed Dewberry Manor and was currently on her way to the cafe. She picked up her phone after it buzzed. It was a text from Ray. "Xavier's car is also heading toward the cafe.
Before she had returned to Dewberry Manor, she had asked Ray to camp outside Lane Group to see where Xavier went tonight.
She wasn't surprised to discover that Daphne was still the stattletale she had been before.
