She hung her head low. “Go ahead, hate me all you want,” she said weakly. The more she tried to explain, the more futile it felt. Whether she did it herself or her family did, in the end, she felt it amounted to the same thing.

Aubree simply stared at her in silence.

Matilda managed a bitter smile. “I’ll clear this up, and then I’ll quit the team.”
