Chapter 45: Stormsville

Claire

Ugh. I shove my head under the pillow as my alarm clock starts ringing. Normally, I look forward to jumping out of the bed in the morning and starting my day at work. Today, is not one of those days. For the next few weeks, I won’t have a job to go to.

The investigation is still pending and we aren’t booking any reservations right now. I’m not sure if anyone would want to make a reservation after the rumors of Hilltop Manor being associated with the mafia.

Unfortunately, Jill and I had to tell the police about Phillip, but he was released after telling the police he had no clue what we were talking about. Currently, he’s nowhere to be found. I’m sure he left Malibu. I can’t say that I blame him after what he told us.
