Daniel denied creating the account.
He handed over his phone voluntarily.
A digital-forensics review found the fake email had been created through
his device.
But the login occurred during a period when Daniel said Tiffany had his
phone.
Tiffany admitted borrowing it to coordinate vendors.
She denied creating the account.
The technical evidence could identify a device.

Margaret resisted the urge to decide based on whom she trusted more.

The twelve-thousand-dollar “consulting fee” was actually money Tiffany
owed her mother.
Caroline had paid deposits for Tiffany’s earlier engagement to another
man.
Tiffany never repaid her.
Margaret blinked.

Daniel stared at his wife.
“You were engaged before?”
Tiffany looked at the floor.
