I don't know what to say," Kim finally managed to whisper, her voice barely audible above the gentle rustle of the evening breeze.Henry reached out and gently took her hand in his, his touch sending a jolt of warmth coursing through her veins."You don't have to say anything, Kim.

You guys succeeded in killing my husband and making me a widow and my daughter, fatherless. Guess, you forgot, an eye for an eye. Look over there," she said, pointing. Isabella followed her finger. She saw David tied up, down the garden. "How did you get my husband? Release my husband now, before I call the police on you.""Don't be stupid, Isabella. Did you think I came without a plan?

She needed to think, to plan. She needed to make them pay.Her first stop was to collect their daughter, Emily, from her sister’s house.
