So I told her the truth.
“Because I have a recording of Grayson and Lorna talking about the apartment on my wedding night. I didn’t know what else they were doing when I made it. But now a solicitor is reviewing the estate documents, and she thinks there are transactions that need to be explained.”
Saoirse stopped breathing for a moment.
“Your wedding night?”
“Yes.”
“And you recorded them?”
“By accident.”
She was quiet for so long that I thought the call had dropped.
Then she said, “Send nothing to me yet. Tell me the solicitor’s name. I’ll speak to her directly.”
I gave her Imelda’s details.
Before she hung up, I heard her take a shaky breath.
“I warned you because I thought you might listen,” she said. “I didn’t think you’d believe everything I told you. I just hoped you’d check.”
“I should have.”
“Yes,” she replied. “You should have.”
