But as it turned out, Phillip and Stuart were stealing from more than just my mom.
Yeah.
A lot more.
They were being investigated in over a dozen other cases.
So, there were a lot of people who wanted their money back from these douche canoes. I just wasn’t sure how likely it was to think we’d ever see any of it again.
After I spent hours and hours at headquarters, my lawyer—who Heather had hired for me, got me to sign a load of papers. Until my hand hurt.
I asked if I was finally done.
And I was.
For now.
The criminal process would take time. Months. Years.
Ages.
At that moment, I really didn’t give a shit anymore.
I had no idea how much money I actually had left in the trust account.
I had no idea if I could afford to pay for my mom’s expenses.
I just basically had no idea.
Heather excused herself—and Cash. She said they’d be right back.
Cash had hardly said a word to me.
He’d stood beside me.
He’d held me up.
And then he’d sat beside me.
For hours.
And hours.
But he never—said anything.
And that hurt more than learning a couple of douche canoes had been stealing from my mom.
So.
As soon as Heather shut the door behind them—I walked out the other door.
And down the hallway.
I asked a very nice RCMP officer for a ride. And he gladly obliged.
That took me to now.
I wasn’t even sure why I was here. Except for the fact that I was pretty sure nobody would find me. And the memories I had of this place were wonderful.
