Chapter 82: Meeting her attacker.

Anabella had been quiet ever since they’d arrived at Thomas Hagin’s house a week after they got back. Thomas was relieved when Aldrich phoned and informed him to go ahead with the meeting. He knew his daughter-in-law was struggling tremendously with this and for her to agree to it meant it had taken a lot of courage, which he admired greatly.

Silently, she sat in the chair, her hands clutched together, her face pale and her emerald eyes wide. Both men watched and admired her bravery at the same time. Aldrich could see her mind was racing. She’d been reluctant to go that morning, making excuses, but in the end she’d gone. From the time they had returned, she had peppered him with questions―sometimes difficult questions―but the Lord always came through with an answer.
