Tyler knew he couldn't keep the charade up any longer, so he just shrugged nonchalantly.

"Ah, it's the sold story. Carol fell for a broke guy, not knowing he had her all figured out, and has been playing the long game.

Carol brought him into her company, and next thing you know, Felix has taken over the joint and even managed to get her old man

sent to the slammer."

diagnosed with a brain tumor, and Felix played the sympathy card in front of Carol. Carol, being the good sport, flew in the best

doctors from all over, clueless that she was treating his fiancée. Those two played Carol like a fiddle. Now, Felix is getting hitched

Carol up, it's a no-go. Plus, with the legal stuff, a simple letter of forgiveness from Felix, and Abner might get a few years shaved

off his sentence. Carol's tied to him. Stubborn as she is, she won't cut ties without that letter."
