I left my wife outside in the freezing cold because my sister yelled, “That woman is using you”; when I opened the balcony door I found a fingerprint, a cigarette butt and an unfinished letter, but what destroyed me the most was knowing who those $8,000 were really for.

The dates coincided with the times Gwen had brought those remedies to Liam’s apartment. But that wasn’t the hardest part.

The hardest part was what Paige confessed. Three years earlier, Nora worked at a packing plant in Lansing.

There was an accident with an old machine that the company refused to repair. A worker was trapped. His name was Aaron Brewer. He was Paige’s older brother.

Nora tried to help him. She squeezed through the metal, cut her arm, and screamed for them to turn off the machine.

By the time the paramedics arrived, it was too late. The company blamed human error to avoid paying what it owed.

Aaron’s family looked for someone to hate, and Paige chose Nora. For three years she believed that Nora had caused her brother’s death.

For three years she nurtured a rage she didn’t know where to put. When Gwen told her about her suspicions regarding the transfers, Paige found the perfect opportunity.
