Chapter 18: The Verdict
"Don't stop on my account," said the founder of Larkin.
She shook rain off her coat and set the tote on the floor.
Behind her, someone in navy scrubs with dark hair piled in a crown squeezed through the doorway.
"Sorry!" Gwen said, out of breath. "Parking, and then a charger, and then I got lost looking for the canoe."
She held up her phone.
"I came straight from my shift. Which of you is Trevor?"
Nobody answered.
Trevor stood halfway out of his chair.
"Ma'am, this is highly irregular. Ms. Fairbrother is making a claim she cannot support."
"I'd like to hear her finish," said the founder. "Then you."
She walked to the head of the table, took the empty chair, and folded her hands on the pine.
"Go on, Ms. Fairbrother."
"My roommate took a picture on the day it happened," I said. "Gwen."
Gwen stepped forward and put her phone in the founder's hand.
I didn't need to look.
I knew what the screen showed.
A fridge whiteboard, a blue marker, and a line in my slanted capitals, with a half-circle of rubbed-out grocery list beneath it.
