The next day.
After breakfast.
News spread throughout the island: Juliette Jones disappeared last night and hasn't returned.
The team from the Jefferson Group had supposedly stayed up all night searching for Juliette's whereabouts.
Even as the dawn broke, not a single hint of her was found.
The dining room was entirely devoid of people like Vermes Marley, seemingly still determined; they were out searching for Juliette.
Only Yolanda Bardot remained in the Jefferson Group's representative's place, having her breakfast.
But, she couldn't eat anymore.
She looked terribly pale, with deep dark circles under her eyes.
Seeing this, Ella Lacey was heartsick. The mere Juliette was enough to make her best friend so preoccupied, it was genuinely too much.
She took the initiative to walk up and put an arm around Yolanda's waist, worriedly asking, "Yolanda, why aren't you eating?"
"Can't eat," answered Yolanda, looking down.
