"It's the truth..."
Winter teared up miserably even as she picked up her phone. "Ask Helen yourself if you don't believe me."
"Lies!" Gina kept snapping angrily, but she was already panicking.
She knew her daughter better than anyone—Helen had been leaving for work earlier these days, even before sunrise.
