Sharon found Wendy’s guess far-fetched, yet she couldn’t think of a better explanation.

“By the way,” Wendy asked, “have you told Theo about this?”

Sharon shook her head. “No. I don’t plan to tell him for now. After all, this is a grudge between me and Carter-it’s not something a child should be burdened with. Besides, I don’t want to alert him prematurely. I’d rather wait and see what Carter’s true intentions are. At worst, I’ll just be more careful with anything Theo brings me in the future.”
