Chapter 21: His Mother
"A driver," Lance's mother said. "A driver and a courier. You'd destroy a family over a hired man's folder."
Her voice was steady, but her hand shook on the table.
"The courier signed a statement," Margot said.
"Men sign anything for a pen and a lawyer."
"Then he'll say it again under oath on Monday."
One of the investors said, very low, "Is the lobby footage real?"
"It's a lobby," she snapped. "Anyone can walk through a lobby."
Then she turned on the only person left to turn on, and she looked at my belly.
"You," she said. "A baker with a lucky chin."
"Sit down," Torben said.
"I'll stand where I like, Mr. Rask. I'm in the middle of a family dinner."
She looked at Agnes.
"And you. A thief with a hospital badge. You sold a child to the highest bidder and slept well for twenty-six years."
The room stopped breathing.
Agnes pushed her chair back and stood up, and I saw her knees tremble under the cardigan.
