Chapter 58

“The hell is that?” asked Cat, half laughing, half angry.

“From my understanding, you aim your paintball gun at the canvas and shoot. The art is splatters of paint. His son Christian is teaching the class. Dom and I learned that the paintball colors they currently have are exactly what you—and I, also—were paintballed with.”

Cat sat back.

“I knewhe’d mess up somewhere. At the very least I’m going to make him pay for that statue.” She stood. “Thank you both so much.”

“Cat, wait,” said Kiko, and she stopped. “What were you doing yesterday just after lunchtime?”

“My ceramics class, I mentioned that,” she said. “There’s openings in my next one, too, if you’re interested. Thanks again.”

Kiko didn’t stop her again as she left, but he did exchange a look with Dom. He was irritated. Nothing seemed to be going anywhere. All the evidence they had pointed to Ben and Kiko was feeling less and less like he was the culprit, not after everything that had happened at his store.
