Although Denise is Dylanâs mother, whenever sheâs alone with Dylan, the boy would always have an accident.
But when a nurse was sent to monitor them at all times, Dylan was perfectly fine.
So my suspicion is that Denise tampered with Dylanâs medicine and it made his condition worsen.
â
That was exactly what I had guessed But it brought me no joy to hear it from someone else.
âThatâs what I thought, too.
If we want to convince Caleb, we have to get cold, hard evidence.
â
âConvince me of what?â
Suddenly, Calebâs voice sounded from behind me.
Debraâs POV:
Too startled and flustered to come up with a good excuse, I blurted, âNothing!â
Caleb fixed his gaze on my face and squinted in suspicion.
âAlright, then who are you talking to on the phone? And whyâd you have to speak with them in private? Is it a man on the other end of the line?â
Calebâs line of questioning made me helpless.
How could he think I was cheating on him?
Dissatisfied, I rolled my eyes at him and retorted, âOf course not!
Do you think everyoneâs a player like you?â
Pouting, Caleb shrugged and asked, âThen who are you talking to?â
I didnât know what to say.
How could I answer his question? There was no solid evidence to prove our suspicion that Denise was behind Dylanâs worsened condition.
If I told Caleb about it prematurely, heâd just think I was trying to drive a wedge between him and Dylanâs mother.

I was racking my brains for an excuse when Caleb suddenly snatched the phone from my hand to check the caller ID.
âOh, itâs Melany.
â
Raising his eyebrows, Caleb put the call on speaker.
âMelany, I know what you want to say to Debra.
You donât have to talk to her in private, because Brianâs told me everything.
â
Then he gave the phone back to me.
From the other end of the line, Melanyâs voice suddenly dropped several hundred degrees.
âOh, is that so?â
