Mason said, “Adler’s alright. Looks like Mr. Salisbury decided not to make a big deal out of it since the Salisbury Corporation is still under the spotlight. He just sent Adler back to the sanatorium. Molly has already taken her dad home. She’s taken time off from school, so she probably won’t be back for a while.”
Wiona finally felt her heart settle a little. Adler was safe, and that was all that mattered for now. After hanging up, she didn’t stay outside any longer. She and Peter got in the car the Sullivan family sent and headed back to Hawthorne Hall.
Wiona kept busy in the car. First, she called Summer to update her. “Summer, I have an idea, but I’m not sure how you’ll feel about it.”
Summer was already touched by everything Wiona had done for her father. When she heard there was a plan, she answered right away, “Tell me.”
Wiona lowered her voice. “I think… we should let people think your dad is in a vegetative state.”
Summer was stunned. “Wait, what did you say?”
Wiona glanced at the driver, then asked him to raise the partition before she continued.
Meanwhile, Peter used the quiet moment to check in with Conrad. “Mr. Sullivan, it seems Ms. Morgan has quite a few issues following her around.”
Conrad replied, “She hasn’t asked for help. That means she can handle it herself. Don’t interfere.”
Peter thought, So Mr. Sullivan already knew. Ms. Morgan really is full of surprises. At first, he thought her biggest claim to fame was being a brilliant artist. Now he realized she was calm, sharp, and handled problems with a quiet confidence. No wonder Mr. Sullivan was so invested in her, but still trusted her to deal with things her own way. And, from the looks of it, she and… well, she and *her* seemed to get along pretty well too.
