Police called Marshall, telling that they found Margaret in the early morning.
Marshall rushed upstairs to tell Katherine the news. She immediately got off the bed, “Where is she? I am going to see her now.”
Without getting changed, she went to the police station in Marshall’s car with Kyle.
Margaret was not hurt, but terrified. In a sitting room, she looked tired.
Upon seeing Margaret in the sitting room, Katherine burst into tears, whispering sorry subconsciously.
Having cried before, Margaret was better now and she tried to comfort Katherine.
Glancing at Margaret, Marshall turned to leave the room.
Katherine asked what Margaret had experienced, but she cannot tell it clearly.
She had gone to the wash room yesterday, but was drugged. She knew nothing after that in a comma.
When she woke up on a hill, she was under a tree with no one around.
She was not tied up, so she tried to go down the hill. She walked so long until she met someone
She asked him for help and called the police.
So she cannot give more clues. She even had no idea about the gender of the person who drugged her.
She stared at Katherine, “I am so confused. Who kidnapped me? I never messed someone up,”
However, Katherine just petted her, saying nothing.
In Katherine’s standpoint, Margaret was safe because the gang found they made mistakes. So they abandoned her under a tree without hurting her.
Marshall came and said that they can leave now.
In front of Margaret, it’s not convenient to ask more, so they left.
They went to Katherine’s house and she hurried to the kitchen to cook.
Margaret’s parents had called her many times because she hadn’t return home yesterday.
Margaret gave a call to her family, telling that she had spent a night in Katherine’s house yesterday because they ended up the party so late.
She had reported to her parents that she might return late because of the party, so she made it the excuse.
her parents accepted the excuse without finding anything wrong.
After the supper, Kyle called someone to drive Margaret home.
With the three left in the house, Kyle turned to Marshall, “What’s going on? Do you get some clues?”
Shaking head, Marshall replied, “Nothing.”
The police got limited clues and Margaret didn’t get hurt. So they had to postpone this kidnapping thing and turned to pay more attention to the serious cases.
Katherine came and asked, “So their target is me, right?”
Marshall cannot make sure, but she was supposed to be right.
On the sofa, Katherine lost in thoughts, “But I messed up nobody.”
