After Ava finished speaking, she was about to dial 911, but Amelia grabbed her hand, carefully explaining, "Actually, that's not necessary. I don't think my bag was stolen. Someone I know probably took it."
Confused, Ava asked, "Someone you know?"
Amelia cleared her throat, "Yes, actually, I came to Ashton to see Daniel Cooper, but there was a misunderstanding and I left on my own, so... you understand what I mean, right?"
Ava nodded honestly, "Not really."
"..." What are you nodding for if you don't understand?
"Put it this way, he may have come looking for me here. Probably, finding me gone, he took my bag instead. But, I don't want to see him at the moment."
Ava understood this time, "So did you have a fallout with Mr. Cooper?"
Amelia's eyes lowered slightly, "You could say that."
"Is it because of the news on the internet?"
She looked up, "What news?"
"You don't know about the news that falsely accused you of being the other woman?"
