Panic struck Heather as she desperately pounded against the barrier in front of her.
“Oh, come on, Amanda! You’ve got to help me! Everett is mine, he belongs to me!”
“You know, Jonathan would still be fond of you if you didn’t mess this up. I’ve sung your praises to him more times than I can count. But you just had to go and let yourself down! Did you ever think about me when you were plotting your tragedy with Everett? He’s the only son I have! ”
Did Heather ever think about her, seeing her only boy covered in blood, lying in an ambulance? The mere thought made Amanda's hands tremble uncontrollably.
Heather pledged hastily, “There won’t be a next time! I swear I’ll take good care of him. I’ll handle his business affairs, and I won’t hurt him anymore, Amanda… I truly regret it!”
“Regret won’t fix anything now. Just stay put for the time being. If I can smooth things over with Jonathan, I’ll let you out. If not… well, you might just have to pay with your life.”
Amanda was about to leave with that. She felt utterly disappointed about Heather.
How many times had she gone against the wishes of her husband and son to support Heather? "Take your time," she had always advised, "the Lopez family only recognizes you as their daughter-in-law. What do you have to fear?"
Heather, who realized she was truly going to be left to her own devices, suddenly called out, “Amanda! You remember what happened with Dorothy’s mom, don’t you?”
Amanda froze, then slowly turned to face her, “What now, you want to threaten me?”
