Damage Control

After seeing Rosa and Mirabelle out, promising in between to eat the food Rosa had packaged and handle the situation at hand, Vanessa called in at the hospital to tell Lorraine that she wouldn't be coming in until later in the day, then locked herself in her study, trying to figure out a way to prove that she and Michael weren't having an affair at the time when she found Ethan cheating.

Firstly, she sorted through video time and date stamps, comparing them to that of the time and date In the video of she and Michael. However, halfway through, a realization dawned on her that even if she had that exposed, people could easily claim that she and Michael had kept their relationship hidden until then.

"Fuck public opinion." She cursed underneath her breath as she continued to savage through the paper scattered across her desk.

"Why the hell do I have to explain shit to them?"
