Sienna looked like she was about to burst into tears. "Whitney, why do you have

to keep pressing me about things I don't want to talk about? Can't you just stop?

Emma jumped to her defense. "You're out of line, Whitney. This is just bullying."

"So, you're admitting the samples belong to you three?" Whitney said, a cool

smile on her lips.

all the samples from these three men, right? Can you tell us, right here and now—

do any of their DNA match the sample you took from Sienna?"

The room went silent. Sienna froze, her face draining of color.

Back when the doctor took her sample, there was never any talk of actually

sending it for testing. Besides, the Nelson family wasn't exactly set up with a high-

tech forensics lab in their fancy old mansion. Sienna had been sure that the

wounds alone would be enough evidence for Mrs. Nelson. Testing... was this

another trap Whitney set for her?
