Ashleigh was not happy to hear that Alice was back in Winter. Even less to know that she would have any part investigating Wyatt’s death.
But, from what the children of Blue Reef had told Caleb, she saved them and tried to save Wyatt. Of course, there might have been a grander scheme at play, but she had to admit, it was just as possible that Alice had genuinely wanted to save them all.
Having Caleb be the one to work with Alice was a bit of a double edge sword.
On one side, she trusted Caleb and knew that he would find the answers and help them seek justice for her father.
On the other, she didn’t trust Alice.
Ashleigh didn’t like it, but she wasn’t going to do anything to stop it either.
“Just… don’t let your guard down around her,” Ashleigh said.
“It’s going to be fine,” Caleb smiled, bringing her hand to his lips, brushing against her knuckles.
Ashleigh sighed and pulled him into a hug.
