“Genevieve, they’re saying you had something to do with the sudden death of Old Mrs. Faulkner. Why were you at the Faulkner residence?” asked one of her colleagues.

Genevieve fell silent for a moment before saying, “Would you guys believe me if I told you that Mr. Faulkner is my husband?”

They had considered that possibility when they saw how Genevieve’s ring matched Armand’s, but they dismissed that thought due to the huge difference between the two.

Because they were clearly worlds apart, no one believed Genevieve when she actually told them about it.
