CHAPTER TWELVE

I sent Harmony out to the sales floor to begin preparing the mannequins for our Fourth of July weekend display, and I shut myself in Rikki's office. I spent the rest of my shift there, my legs curled beneath me on the desk chair as I worked on my aunt's laptop. I searched the vendor catalogs she'd bookmarked and ordered a shipment of Michael Kors peep-toe wedge sandals in three different colors. Rikki preferred to save electronic receipt copies in their own folder, so I saved a PDF file with the purchase and delivery information and dragged it toward a folder on the desktop labeled Orders.

As I saving the file, another little icon near the bottom of the screen caught my attention. It was the same little folder image, but it had Louana's name on it. My curiosity stirred. Though the folder probably only contained work-related documents, it couldn't hurt to take a peek. I double-clicked the little image, and a window popped up, revealing the folder's contents.

To my disappointment, there was nothing suspicious inside—no subfolders full of incriminating photos or documents labeled List of People Who Want Me Dead. All the folder contained were a couple of inventory spreadsheets and a list of other clothing vendors. I recognized the names of some. Louana had placed an asterisk next to the ones she'd browsed most often, including the online catalog I'd just visited to order the Michael Kors shoes.

One vendor was even highlighted in yellow. I copied the website URL from the list and pasted it into the internet browser, making a little squeal of delight when I spied an adorable yellow bikini with pink palm trees on it from Olivia Jake's new Island Punk collection. I was pretty sure we already had the same bathing suit in stock at the boutique. Louana must have ordered it from this vendor. The woman may have been nasty, but she had great taste in fashion, I thought, bookmarking the site so I could browse it when I placed our next product order.

The office door opened without warning, and Harmony stepped inside. "There's a woman at the front counter asking for you," she said in a bored tone.

I lifted an eyebrow. "She asked for me by name?" I wasn't expecting anyone. Had Erin come back to give me another tongue lashing?

"Yes." Harmony heaved an exasperated sigh. "For some reason, someone at this store actually wants to talk to you." She rolled her eyes and then flounced out of the office.

I (just barely) resisted the urge to make faces behind Harmony's back as I followed her to the front of the store. A woman in a pale blue skirt and white blouse stood with her back to us, waiting at the counter. Her reddish brown hair was rolled into a low bun at the nape of her neck. She turned around as I approached, and my stomach did a barrel roll. "What are you doing here?" I practically hissed at Felicity Chase.

The Aloha Sun reporter's lips stretched in a wide grin.
