It was Isla Prescott's first day of work, and although she hadn't done a thing, she was inexplicably excited the entire day.
She loved everything about the dance troupe—from the food in the small cafeteria to the stray cat in the garden.
When it was time to clock out, Isla Prescott went to the tuck shop, bought a few fish sausages, and returned to the garden to feed the cat.
She had just torn open the wrapper on a fish sausage when she heard footsteps. Peeking past the flowerbed, she saw Annabelle Leighton walking shoulder-to-shoulder with a man toward the parking lot.
The man's back was to her, but his refined and imposing figure seemed somewhat familiar.
"That's Young Mr. Shaw of the Sterling Group."
Yara Jennings appeared out of nowhere, startling both Isla Prescott and the cat.
"Do you ever make a sound when you walk?"
