This was certainly an interesting turn of events. Jared hadn't had the most fuzzy and warm feelings for David Reynolds from the beginning so he wasn't at all shocked that he might be a strong suspect in his father's death.

Currently, Eli had several deputies scouring the estate looking for the man but so far, he hadn't turned up. His vehicle was still in the garage though, so he should be on the property.

Jared, on the other hand, was sticking close to the house and keeping an eye on the residents. While they - including Misty - were all in the living room talking and comforting Taylor, he took the opportunity to call Jason, who had sent a text earlier that he had some information.

"How's it going down there?" Jason asked when he picked up the phone. "Any closer to finding the killer?"

"Maybe," Jared replied. "Someone took a couple of shots at Dahlia and her daughter Taylor while they were out riding. One of their deputies found a rifle with David Reynolds' initials on it. They're looking for him now."

"They shot at them?"

"According to Dahlia, she heard three shots and then her horse bolted."

"Three shots?"

"You keep repeating everything I'm saying."

Jason chuckled. "You're right, I am. I'm just trying to picture the scene. The two of them were riding and someone was waiting for them, presumably in a location that would allow them to see and be close enough to their victims to shoot them but not be seen. Then they shot three times, missed all three times and then disappeared, leaving the firearm behind. That doesn't bother you in any way?"

Frankly, Jared hadn't had time to think about the scenario but now that his friend had pointed it out...

It did seem a little weird.

"I guess the person could be a lousy shot."

"They could," Jason conceded. "Or maybe they weren't trying to kill anyone. They might have been trying to scare them. I don't know that for sure but it's something to think about."

"I'll be thinking about it." Jared rubbed at the back of his neck where the muscles were tightening up painfully with stress. "I hope you have better news for me than I had for you."

"I definitely have news but I don't know if it's good or bad. We've been elbow deep researching the Reynolds family since you called. It's all hands on deck here so we can get you back as soon as possible."

"Tell everyone that dinner is on me when we get back. I'm grateful."

"I'll tell them you'll buy them a juicy steak. Now I'll go over the information with you on the phone, but then I'll send the detailed research to your email."

"I'll keep an eye out for it."

"First, I found out there were some rumors that Adam Reynolds was thinking of selling Chipper Shopper. They started a few months ago, I'm assuming right after his diagnosis. Whether he was actually in any talks or negotiations I don't know. Certainly, he would have had interest if he wanted to sell.
