PART 3
Margaret stared at me.
“You called the police?”
“I reported what Emily told me.”
“You have no idea what happened.”
“Correct.”
That answer surprised her.
I continued:
“Which is why people who weren’t at your dinner table will document it.”
Ethan stepped toward Emily’s bed.
“I need to speak to my wife privately.”
Emily recoiled.
I did not block him physically.
I looked at the nurse.
“My daughter says she doesn’t want him near her.”
The nurse moved immediately.
“Sir, you’ll need to step outside.”
Ethan’s face hardened.
“She’s my wife.”
The nurse did not blink.
“She is my patient.”
