"What does that even mean?" Gina frowned, her brows knitting together once Lily's words finally sank in.
Lily, however, was still struggling to process Roger's claim herself. The determination she'd seen in his eyes lingered in her mind — it wasn't something she could easily forget.
She knew Roger well enough. He was the kind of man who would let others steer his life, passive and compliant, until the moment he decided to take control for himself. And yesterday... she had felt that shift. He had made up his mind, and no one, not even she, could change it.
"Does Rita know?" Gina asked, her voice breaking through Lily's thoughts.
Lily hesitated before shaking her head, uncertainty flickering across her face.
"I don't know. If she did, why would she come to me? Unless..." she trailed off, a realization dawning on her.
"Maybe she does know."
