The truth
Lance.
There are tears in her eyes.
I can see the regret as they flood them. I am sure she is thinking she should have not come for this. I might have not gotten a confession from her but I see things clearly. She doesn't have to admit what happened, there is no need to. She knows what happened that night.
In fact, she is the only one that knows what happened to him.
"You can't just assume you know what happened. This is bullshit." She stands up from the chair. I remain seated. She is not going to leave. She has a lot to lose if I involve the police on this. She has known what happened to Patrick's father for the whole year and she didn't say anything—instead, she chose to blackmail her son, or should I say, manipulate him.
