She leaned in close to Renee Morgan and spoke in a low voice: "I just heard someone coming from outside. Ms. Chapman and I helped you guys hide that half biscuit ahead of time. Once they leave, we'll give it back to you."
Normally, no one would make a fuss—after all, if the biscuits ended up in that group's hands, they'd never get them back, but if they stayed with their own people, maybe not. Renee Morgan was no exception, right?
Of course, whether she and Zara would actually return the biscuits after those people left was another matter entirely.
When the time came, they could just say the biscuits were lost—what could Renee Morgan and Lynn Miller do to them?
Renee Morgan wasn't stupid; she didn't believe Wendy Aldridge's nonsense. If she really just wanted to help her and Lynn Miller hide the biscuits to save them from thieves, then why did Zara have such a guilty reaction?
They were just taking advantage of the chaos to steal her and Lynn's biscuits, weren't they?
