Chapter 13

Johanna was bursting with joy inside, but her outward appearance was cool, calm, and collected. Frankie knew she'd clicked the audio switch on her camera before beginning their questioning of Brenna Martin. They were finally getting the answers to their questions. She had to be careful, though, with the nature of her questions. In any event, they already had enough information to prove that Kyle Martin was a liar. It would be interesting to see if George pried anything out of Will.

Brenna's eyebrows shot up. “I don't know why he would say that.” She nervously picked at the hem of her short-sleeved pink blouse.

Johanna watched her actions as she formulated her next question. The last thing she wanted to do was have Brenna suddenly clam up if she caught on to what they were doing. “So, Bobby has no contact with his grandparents? Is that correct?”

“No…I already told you that he doesn't.”

“Have you ever considered the fact that removing them from Bobby's life might be the cause of his recent problems?”

“Kyle said in time he'll adjust. When he's older he'll understand that what Kyle did was in his best interests.”

“I don't understand why Kyle's parents hadn't asked Will to take a paternity test. They'd been raising the boy for thirteen years. If they thought Will was Bobby's father you would think if they needed financial help they would have pursued Will for help.”

“Kyle said he'd mentioned it, but they didn't want to pursue anyone. I think they were afraid if they found his biological father then he or his family might sue for custody of Bobby.”

“But they lost custody of him anyway.” Johanna frowned. “What I don't understand is how you and Kyle were able to gain custody so quickly. Didn't the grandparents put up a fight to keep Bobby?”

She drew her eyebrows together. “As I stated, Kyle had a volatile relationship with his parents.”

“No,” Johanna said calmly. “I don't think you mentioned that. How volatile?”

She ran a shaky hand through her hair. “I…I don't know a lot about his past. Only what he told me…and that's not much.”

“Really?” Johanna peered at her curiously. “I was under the impression you were familiar with your husband's family since you were raised in Seattle and I assume attended the same high school as Kyle.”

She looked confused again. “I wasn't raised in Seattle. I'm from a little town in Oregon. I moved to Seattle a little over ten years ago when I was offered the position in Hakon West DNA Lab.”

Wow, Johanna thought. She was glad that she was recording this because this information was more than she could dissect or remember. There were so many questions she wanted to ask, but would Brenna Martin continue to be as forth coming with her answers as she had previously been? “How long did you know Kyle before you married him?”

She relaxed somewhat and flashed a bright smile for the first time since they began questioning her. “We're one of those love at first sight couples you sometimes hear about,” she said.
