Harriet’s Determination
Despite the pain of her situation, Harriet refused to succumb to despair. She was determined to reclaim her home and mend the fractured bonds that had once held her family together. With each passing day, her resolve only strengthened, fueled by a simmering anger at Lily’s betrayal. Had she known that her daughter-in-law was so manipulative, she wouldn’t have invited her to stay in her home. Harriet knew she couldn’t confront Lily directly that would only drive a deeper wedge between her and her son. The sneaky mother-in-law was working on her own plans behind the scenes.

Torn between his loyalty to his wife and his devotion to his mother, Paul found himself questioning everything he believed to be true. He began to notice troubling details: Lily’s increasingly late returns from work, and one day, the faint, unfamiliar scent of men’s cologne lingering on her.
