Cole’s face stiffened a bit.

Thinking about this, the smile on her face deepened. “Phoebe’s really lucked out. Compared to our Wendy, her fate is miles better. I’ve done right by my poor, late sister, making sure her daughter is set.”

Everyone knew who she was referring to as her “late sister,” Phoebe’s deceased mother.
