“He told Grandma that you wanted to live in Canton to be closer to your sister,” Adam said, his voice dropping to a dry whisper. “He said you were the one who wanted the break.”

“She did not act like she knew it,” Adam said.
“I will talk to her,” Lauren said. “She needs to see the bank statements. Once she sees where the money went, she will understand.”
“He has more money than us,” Adam said, his voice flat. “He can buy whatever he wants. He has that new car.”
