Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2615

Soon, Shirley came out of the gift shop. Imogen got up and held Shirley’s arm. She told her that the coffee wasn’t nice, so she wanted to get another cup from another shop. In the next footage, Shirley realized there was another coffee shop right across the street, but she didn’t realize this back then. Now that she was going through the videos, she realized they could’ve bought a cup of coffee from the nearby shop.

Imogen took me straight ahead, though. Also, there was a turn at the end, but it seemed like she knew there was a coffee shop there. She didn’t even look around.

Noticing that face made Shirley’s heart sink. This is Imogen’s first time coming to Flor and her first time going down this street, so how did she know there was a coffee place there? Did she look it up? That’s the only plausible explanation, but even so, it seems fishy.

Shirley continued watching. The video showed the coffee shop’s curtains being drawn while she was fighting inside. Fifteen minutes later, Imogen leaped out the window. Shirley kept rewinding that part and realized something was amiss.

The kidnappers didn’t go after Imogen after she escaped, but I heard one of them saying that they wouldn’t let any of us go, so why didn’t they go after Imogen after she ran away? There were about eight of them in the shop. They could’ve sent a couple to go after Imogen. Also, Imogen’s arm was broken after she escaped. The kidnappers would’ve recaptured her if they wanted to, but weirdly, they didn’t go after Imogen.

The more Shirley rewound the video, the more bone-chilling things got. Could Imogen have been in cahoots with those people? What’s the reason for kidnapping me? For ransom? Is she one of them?

Shirley knew Imogen needed money; she wouldn’t even buy skincare products. Back at the base, Imogen would always come to her room and use her stuff. Most of the time, Shirley gave Imogen the skincare products her mother had given her. After setting up that hypothesis, Shirley thought about the days she spent with Imogen and realized she didn’t know Imogen that much at all. There was always a veil covering her. Imogen was only nice to her, seemingly because she wanted to get something out of their friendship.
