The Woman From Hell

In the office.

I was thinking about what Harriet said. It was obviously nothing, but why did she say that?

Seeing the dark clouds on my face, Shannon came over and snapped me out of it. "What are you thinking about that's got you so preoccupied?" "Shannon, when we went to meet Harriet, did she say that she agreed to see us because it was Theo who called her and asked her for a favor?" I checked with Shannon again to make sure I had not misheard.

Shannon nodded. "Yes, she did. What's wrong?" She noticed the skepticism in my eyes and simply sat down opposite me, waiting for me to continue.

I looked at her and told her about what Theo had said this morning. Shannon was stunned after she heard that. "You're saying that Theo didn't call Harriet. Why did she say that, then? Could it be that Theo lied because he doesn't want you to know that it was him?"

I thought so too at first, but I observed Theo's expression, and he was truly confused. He obviously did not know about it, so I ruled out this possibility.

"No, it's not that."

"If it's not Theo who lied, then it's Harriet. But why did she do that?"

Shannon's doubts were exactly what I was struggling with. I did not know Harriet's motive for saying what she did, and this threw my mind into chaos.
