Chapter 10 - Diane Warns Of A Darker Truth Waiting To Surface
“What are you talking about, Diane? Who else could possibly be involved in this madness?” Emily demanded through the intercom.
Diane leaned closer to the glass, her eyes gleaming with a manic intensity that made Emily step back instinctively.
“You think Ryan is an innocent victim in all of this? Ask him about the real reason his father died,” Diane hissed softly.
“Ryan’s father died of a sudden heart attack ten years ago! Don't you dare try to manipulate me!” Emily shouted angrily.
“Heart attack? That’s the fairy tale we fed the press so the stock prices wouldn't tank overnight,” Diane mocked lightly.
A prison guard stepped forward, tapping his baton against the glass partition to signal the end of the visitation time.
“Your time is up, ma'am. Step away from the glass,” the guard instructed sternly, grabbing Emily’s shoulder.
Emily turned and walked rapidly down the corridor, her mind racing with terrifying doubts about the man she married.
Could Ryan really be hiding something so monstrous about his own father’s mysterious death?
