boat. I told her I wouldn’t and then she pushed me. The next thing I know I’m on a beach.”
“And that’s when your Aunt Bethany found you?”
“Yeah.”
“Thank you so much for telling me that.” Kalina released her grip, anticipating a change in his demeanor when she asked her next question. “Do you remember meeting Paige again recently?”
Logan, the stony-faced protector, returned. “I knew it was her the moment I met her.”
“Did you reach out to her on the dating site?”
“No, she found me. I let her think she was winning me over. Like we had a connection. Hell, I even let her kiss me on the first date. Had to drink a lot to get that image out of my head.”
“What made you decide to kill her?” She caught Chris out of the corner of her eye, watching the progress. Bethany had been right. She was able to get him to open up.
“She laughed and grabbed my arm. Stupid bitch. I knew then she hadn’t changed. She could put on nice clothes and call herself Verona but she would always still be Paige. I couldn’t let her hurt him again. And so I convinced her to go on a trip to the beach. I didn’t tell her where until we got there. She thought it was a joke until I showed her our graves. Right next to our parents. I made her admit she knew who I was right before I killed her.”
“They died last year.”
Logan grinned. “They never saw it coming. I had to work up to that one though, find the right way of doing it so they wouldn’t know who it was. After all, they never really saw him growing up.”
Chris stepped into the room and motioned for Kalina to leave. “You did great. Thank you.”
She expected Logan to protest as she left when Chris began reading him his rights but he looked resigned to his fate. Much like Bethany had. They’d been carrying the weight of the family’s tragedies for too long and now it was being lifted. Kalina wound her way through the hospital to the nursery and found Jillian and AJ standing watch over Nina’s bassinet through the window.
Jillian looked over and smiled. “What happened?”
“We solved the case. Paige lured Patrick out on the boat that day and pushed him overboard. He spent the last year planning his revenge on his parents and sister.”
“That’s messed up,” AJ said.
“It is, but at least now we know the truth. And now Chris and I can focus on being parents.” She waved to her daughter through the glass. “But I think we’ve solved our last case.”
