Lena stood outside the door, her mind reeling. If they hadn't arrived, would those two have already done it?

She was livid! The thought was unbearable, her heart aching with envy and misery. As she clutched the homemade soup she had lovingly prepared, a shadow loomed in her eyes. Hattie moved forward as Josefina pushed Oliver away to stand beside her.

"Oh, Josie, I heard everything. Jaxon plotted against you... Why didn't you tell us? Your message said you were dining with friends and staying over, and I believed it.
