Chapter 42 “Blackmail?”

• She suddenly realized what she was saying and said, "I'm not trying to say anything to hurt you, baby. I'm sorry. I know you were hurting and going through a rough time." I smiled at her.
• "It's okay. The fact is that I lost it for a while. I did a lot of things during that time that I'm ashamed of. You're probably right; Cassie probably plans on using the tapes to blackmail me and some of the others on the tape. But baby, please don't worry about her trying to take Michael. He's never out of our sight or Mrs. Yost's. I'll have security around the house increased even more."
• She looked into the car at Michael. I could see on her face that she was trying to believe me. Changing the subject a bit she said, "How would she know who the voices belong to, are you sure she doesn't have video footage?" "I don't know, she might. I'm sorry baby, I'm not sure of anything at this point."
