Chapter 10 - Caroline Had Her Own Reason
Caroline surrendered after midnight.
She admitted helping Evelyn.
But her motive was different.
William Blake had left a private trust.
Caroline controlled part of it.
If Claire’s evidence proved William committed fraud, lawsuits could
reach assets Caroline believed belonged to her children.
She wanted the metal box destroyed.
Evelyn promised to get it.
In return, Caroline would help separate Victoria from Andrew long enough
to convince her that the Blakes remained dangerous.
The fake itinerary.
The packed suitcase.
The story told to Lily.
All of it was designed to create panic.
Caroline insisted she never intended to harm Lily.
Victoria looked at her.
“You told a four-year-old her father was taking her away from her
mother.”
Caroline lowered her eyes.
“I know.”
May you like
“No. You know now because you got caught.”
Caroline had no answer.
