Andrew was no fool. He picked up on Jack’s icy tone and quickly switched to sweet–talking. 

“Okay, okay, I won’t bring her up again. Still, I’ve told you everything I could, and look at me now–my family’s gone, and I’ve got my just desserts. Can’t you just let me off the hook?” 

He was practically pleading. 

“If you hit me with those questions one more time, I’m going to go crazy!” 

The questions were the same, day in, day out. He could not even use the same answers. He was at his wit’s end, clueless about what to say next. 

Jack’s eyes flickered, and he gestured dismissively at Andrew. “Andrew, I didn’t come here to grill you today. You said it yourself that rehashing those questions is a drag, and I’m over it. So today, I’ve got a little surprise for you.” 

A spark of hope lit up in Andrew’s eyes, a break from the tedium of his life. “What’s the surprise?” 

Jack pulled out his phone, found a recording, and held it out to Andrew with a smirk. “Trust me, you’re going to like this.” 

He tapped the play button with a flourish. 

The woman’s voice spilled out from the speaker like a torrent. 

“Why waste your thoughts on that loser? He promised me the moon and the stars, but when push came to shove? The moment the Fosters got involved, it all fell apart. He dumped everything on me! Let him do whatever he wants. For all I care, he might as well be dead!” 

Andrew’s face went pale the instant he heard that familiar voice. 

Jack, on the other hand, was immersed in the recording, not even glancing at Andrew’s reaction. 

“Mom, it’s just us here. You can tell me the truth. How did Yessica really die?” 

“Why bring her up out of the blue? She was nothing but trouble, and I’d rather not even speak of her!” 

“But I have to know what happened, right?! Yessica was the darling of the Foster family. There’s no way they’ll just let this slide. If her death has nothing to do with you, then we don’t have to worry about the Fosters. However, if it does, I need to be ready!” 

“Look, Yessica’s death… I had nothing to do with it. Remember when our Rearden family’s company was the new hot thing in Avalon City? Your dad was on top of the world, and I was just the new girl at the office…” 

“So you charmed Dad into leaving Yessica for you?” 

The recording cut off abruptly, right before the big reveal. 

Andrew’s face was a mask of anger, and the sudden silence made him scowl with frustration. 

“What on earth did Lydia blab about? Why won’t you play it? I’m dying to hear just how much nonsense she can spew!” Andrew’s eyes blazed with fury.
