Chapter 154

Estrella clicked the recorder, and Piper’s voice emerged, “Ms. Estrella, right? Take a seat, please.”

Estrella had visited Piper while gathering evidence of Nick’s domestic abuse against Lexi, but Piper hadn’t provided anything useful for the case, so Estrella didn’t present it in court. “So, Piper, were you aware that Nick was married?” Estrella inquired.

“As for the assault and murder charges you’ve got against him, obviously he would me. He still wanted to look good in my eyes.”

At this point, Estrella asked, “Given the aspects of Nick you’re pleased with, have yo thought about marrying him?”

Piper burst out laughing at that, “Marriage? I’ve just clawed my way out of that pit. I’ve money, men, and freedom of time and energy. Do you really think I’d choose marriage, Estrella?”
