“What did he tell you?”
Richard said quietly:
“I told them the bank records were finally being reviewed.”
My stomach dropped.
“Reviewed by whom?”
Richard looked at me.
“Federal investigators.”
Nobody moved.
Benjamin whispered:
“Mom, please.”
I stared at him.
“What did you do?”
He shook his head.
“I didn’t know it would go this far.”
Richard stepped forward.
“Benjamin wasn’t the only person moving money.”
I looked at him.
“Who else?”
Richard looked toward Genevieve.
She closed her eyes.
Then she whispered:
“My father.”
I didn’t understand.
