Chapter Twelve

Lizbeth studied the papers in her hand over and over again. She couldn’t quite believe what she was reading. In her hands was all the proof she’d ever dreamed of having, and poor Diandra didn’t even realize what this was. The papers that had been hidden away in the basement filing cabinet held the answers she was seeking: exactly how the drug import operation was run and where the deliveries were stored prior to delivery. There was also a list of every individual involved, in hierarchical order. There was just one big problem with this list- Diandra’s husband, Jonah, was right near the top of it. He was one of the people involved with framing Lizbeth, one of the ones who cost her her job as well as her apartment, her friendships, her whole support system. He had done his damndest to ruin her life, and had very nearly succeeded.

A slow, steady rage burned up through Lizbeth and she fought to tame it. This man had done so much to ruin both their lives. Now she knew just how much he had had a part in ruining hers, and she was furious. She bit back as much of her anger as she could because she knew she was needed. She could indulge in her fury later all she wanted. Right now Diandra had questions that needed answers, and she was the only one here who could answer them for her.

“What do you make of all this?” Diandra asked, confusion written across her features. “I recognize some of these names and places, but the monetary amounts and the locations mean nothing to me.”

Lizbeth sucked in a deep breath and prepared to shake Diandra’s world once more. “This is a list of the locations of drug deliveries, the amount of money made off of each sale, and a list of the people involved. Dia, honey, Jonah was one of the people who conspired to have me kicked off the force last year.” Diandra was shaking her head, refusing to believe. “I’m betting when you check your bank records you’ll see deposits in these amounts. This is where his wealth came from, not from inheritance or from his job with the police. I’m sorry, honey, but he was a criminal.”

Diandra continued to shake her head, but Lizbeth pressed on. “Do you see this name right here? This is my boss, the one who actually handed in the paperwork framing me. This is the name of an assistant district attorney I knew was involved. This is the name of the man I’ve been watching for the last several months. I just never had the proof. I’m sorry, Dia, but I need to turn this over to Alexar.”

Diandra paled. “You’re going to turn in evidence incriminating my husband to his best friend and former boss? You’ll ruin him.”

Lizbeth took her hand. “Honey, as far as everyone knows he’s dead. You can’t ruin the life of a dead man. There’s no way he can come back, no way to prosecute him.
