Chapter Seven

“You whore!”

I wake up to the sound of shouting and glass shattering on the floor. I jolt up out of bed, my heart beginning to pound. Anxiety is racing through me. What in the hell is going on?

Rubbing my eyes, I get my feet on the ground and stumble out of bed. I go to the door, open it, and the yelling only gets louder.

“I let you in my house! I gave you everything and this is how you repay me? I can’t believe it!” More shattering glass.

I walk down the hallway, past Oliver’s room which is already empty. When I reach the stairway, I lean over the bannister on top because everything I need to see is unfurling right in the entryway.

Camille is still in pajamas, a silk nightie with a robe tossed over it. Her hair is wrapped, her face makeup-less. She’s crying, tears staining her cheeks. In front of her is Alan, already dressed for the day. His features are clearly distressed, although he’s not crying.

At the bottom of the staircase are Oliver and Allison. They’re sitting together, Oliver’s arm around her shoulders.

“I know how it looks,” Camille cried. She wipes the tears from her face and tries to straighten herself up. “But I assure you that I would never betray you like that, Alan! It’s fake. It is. I swear!”

“There’s video proof of you fucking someone else, Camille!” hollered Alan. “The whole world has seen it now. And you’re still going to stand here and lie to me about it? How is that video fake? Do you really think that family has enough money to pay someone to fake a video like that?”

Camille’s crying harder now, and I feel like I’m not supposed to be here. I feel like somebody spying on something that they should not, an interloper. I am, I realize. This is a family moment, and I’m watching it like it’s a daytime soap opera...but I can’t look away.

Camille has stopped trying to argue with Alan, instead, all she can do is cry.

“I’m sorry!” she said through tears.

There it is. The admission of guilt that Alan was looking for.

This means a hell of a lot more work for me. This means I’m screwed. How in the hell am I going to spin this affair? There’s a plus side to all of this, as crazy as that sounds...Alan is reacting like a man who just found out about his wife’s affair. If that were his motive to kill Matthew, he would have already known this, this wouldn’t be so painful to him, right?

Allison is hiding her face in Oliver’s shoulder, clearly upset by all of this. Oliver, on the other hand, is emotionless. His face is a blank slate like I’ve never seen it before, distant and far off. He’s comforting Allison, but that’s it.

Alan looks at Camille once more, shaking his head.

“Get the hell out of my house. Expect divorce papers by noon. Thanks to the prenup you signed, your greedy ass won’t be getting a penny.
