Early the next morning, Laura was still sleeping groggily when the doorbell rang, waking her up.
She yawned, climbed out of bed, slipped on her slippers, and went to open the door.

Peach bounced into the room, so excited she was practically waving a flag and cheering.
Laura went back to her bedroom, picked up her phone from the charger, and gently swiped the screen to unlock it.
Sure enough, the incident in the hotel hallway from yesterday had been exposed. All sorts of nasty insults were popping up one after another. Phoebe Sterling was probably in a terrible state.
