“You still shouldn’t have followed Sylvia!” Tara screamed. She wiped her tears away and continued, “Tell me the truth, did you follow Sylvia and Grandmother to Northpeak Resort?”

Melanie’s gaze became evasive. She said, “I did, but I didn’t push Madam Carter down the hill!”

Tara then asked her, “You really didn’t push Grandmother down the hill?”

Looking resolute, Melanie insisted, “I really didn’t do it!”

Tara then turned to Odell. “Odell, my aunt said that she didn’t do it.”
