Because of Stella, I’d crossed paths with Joshua a few times—enough to say we knew each other, but not well.
Aurora met Rachel’s gaze. “You know that’s not what I mean.”
Rachel feigned confusion. “I really don’t understand what you’re getting at, Ms. Williams.”
Aurora turned to Simone, who nodded, her lips curled in a half-smile as she looked at Rachel.
“Rachel, did you pretend to be the person who saved Joshua’s life?”
Rachel’s pupils contracted sharply, and for a second, she nearly lost control of her expression.
Still, she replied, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
With practiced calm, Simone recounted everything Joshua had told her, laying it all out for Rachel.
At first, Rachel managed to keep her composure, but as Simone continued, her face grew paler and paler.
Her fingers clenched tightly together.
Astonishingly, what Joshua had told Simone was exactly the same as what he’d told her.
Aurora didn’t miss a flicker of Rachel’s reaction; she’d already drawn her own conclusions.
So, Rachel and Joshua really did know each other. And what Joshua confided in Simone was probably true.
When Simone finished, she reached into her bag and pulled out a pair of earrings.
“Ms. Pearce, these earrings look familiar, don’t they?”
