Debra looked at Shelia's innocent face, her brow furrowing slightly. Shelia seemed genuinely repentant, but Debra knew better than to take things at face value.

There were only two reasons for such a drastic change: either Shelia had truly turned over a new leaf, perhaps under the influence of true love, or she was biding her time, playing the victim until she could strike back.
