CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Olivia was relieved to get out of the house and be on the way to the police station with Wayne. She felt uncomfortable spending time with Bella and was greatly disturbed to hear about Tyron’s involvement with escorts. Also, the odd experience of seeing someone peering in through the door had been unnerving. If it was Megan, as Olivia suspected, it might mean that she was coming apart. The fear and horror Megan was experiencing might be too much for her. That didn’t make her a murderer, though. Olivia refused to jump to that conclusion.

“Do you think it’s true that Tyron used escorts regularly?” Olivia asked Wayne as the cab rolled through the elegant streets of Naples where everything was glittering and in perfect order.

“I can’t imagine Bella would lie about something like that,” Wayne replied. “It’s easy to check up on it, anyway.”

“We have to check it out right away,” said Olivia.

“We certainly do,” Wayne agreed.

“I can see how something like that could drive Megan completely crazy,” Olivia breathed. “It had to feel like a huge slap in her face.”

“It’s not as unusual as you might imagine, though,” said Wayne, trying to normalize the situation. “Lots of guys get hooked on escorts, including older ones.”

Olivia knew she had to accept that reality, even though she found it distasteful. “But what else does that tell us about Tyron?”

“It doesn’t say anything much about Tyron, but of course it puts his marriage in a bad light,” Wayne commented. “And it certainly could speak to motive for Megan. When exactly did she find out about these escorts? How long had it been going on? That’s very important.”

“A jury could relate to her upset, I believe,” Olivia murmured.

“Maybe. It depends who they are,” said Wayne staunchly. “But if Megan’s now taking it upon herself to peer through doors, that makes her seem even more desperate. Who knows what else she might have overheard Tyron saying? If she found out he wanted her gone, it makes sense that she would have decided to get rid of him before he got to her.”

“Self-defense?” mused Olivia.

“There are better ways of defending yourself.” Wayne didn’t like it. “It sounds as though they had a weird power struggle going on for some time.”

Olivia felt a case building against Megan from every corner, one insinuation at a time. All put together, it could do her in. It almost felt like a tidal wave was growing against Megan that would be almost impossible to overcome. Olivia didn’t like it. The situation was too complex to stop searching.

“What about Bella?” Olivia remarked. “How reliable is she? Are we just brushing off her video because she makes light of it?”

“Who says we’re brushing it off? I made sure the police got a copy. I don’t see any motive with Bella, frankly,” said Wayne. “It’s natural for caretakers to get frustrated and cranky. I’m sure lots of them lose their tempers at times.”

Wayne was downplaying Bella’s possible involvement. He clearly didn’t feel good about Megan, or anything about her.
