"So," Suzy said slowly, processing the information Alice had shared with her, "you're here because Priscilla asked you and promised to pay off your debt?"
Alice sat stiff, hands clasped tight in her lap. Now, she was sitting on the floor as well beside Suzy.
She nodded once.
Suzy's brows arched, but she didn't look surprised. "Priscilla asked you to pretend to be Aurora because Aurora is… in a psychiatric ward?"
Another small nod.
Alice kept it simple. Nothing about Hardy. Nothing about Dawin. Nothing about how deep Priscilla's hand had been in all this. If she opened those doors, she doubted she'd ever close them again.
"And you took the job…" Suzy's gaze narrowed, pinning her like an insect on glass. "For the money?"
Her chin dipped in another nod.
She wished she could just tell Suzy to stop asking her the same questions over and over again like she was trying to better understand this situation from different angles.
