If someone finds it, they can call someone close to you. As I pulled into Quovadicon, I noticed only one car left in the lot, and it wasn’t a silver Camry. That was weird. There must have been a separate lot for staff parking that I wasn’t aware of. I hopped out and checked the time. Four thirty. A few minutes dealing with Dyan and I could get home and get back to the search for the cell phone. The large glass doors were open. The lights in the reception area were out. I hesitated before going in, considering I was persona non grata with Fredelle. “Hello,” I said, walking past the empty reception desk into the office area. “Autumn? Are you here?” The lights were out in the boardroom and the main office area, but still on in Fredelle’s office. There was no sign of Fredelle, though, which was just as well considering the conversation we’d had the last time we spoke. Where was everyone? It didn’t seem like Fredelle to depart early without making sure the place was settled.
