Meanwhile, Norah had apparently been receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“Daniel.”
“Yes?”
“Find out what that money was for.”
“I will.”
“And find out whether the company paid for their Hawaiian wedding.”
There was silence.
“You think it did?”
“I don’t think.”
I looked at the photograph still open on my computer.
Ryan beneath the white roses.
Norah beside him.
Joyce smiling.
“I know my husband.”
By noon, the internet had exploded.
The photographs had spread across Nashville.
Someone had posted screenshots of Joyce’s Instagram.
Then a local business account picked them up.
Then a gossip page.
Then several wedding accounts.
The headline was everywhere:
NASHVILLE DEVELOPER SECRETLY MARRIES PREGNANT MISTRESS IN HAWAII.
Ryan’s name was trending.
So was mine.
People started asking questions.
Who was Addison Vance?
Why wasn’t she at the wedding?
Were Ryan and Addison already divorced?
Did Addison know about Norah?
