"I refuse to believe it. This must be a lie."

Helen felt a pang of annoyance. How could Ariana be so defensive?

"Stop deceiving yourself. Even if I wanted to deceive you, the evidence in those photos cannot be fabricated." Impatience laced Helen's words as she continued, “Theodore has always held a special place in his heart for Marley. It's highly unlikely that this sentiment would change, regardless of how much time passes. He keeps her photographs in prominent places, ensuring they remain within his constant view, simply because he doesn't want to forget her. Let me think..."

Pausing briefly to consider, Helen clapped her hands lightly as if an idea had just struck her.

"There are also pictures of Marley in Theodore's office. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself. Although you probably won't be able to enter his office. Theodore detests uninvited guests the most."
