Shirley Thorne organized the information she had so far. It went something like this:
David Walsh and The Mistress Mother had been lovers for a while, and they were apparently very close.
The Mistress Mother has children. To secure their inheritance, she most likely saw Ethan Grant as a thorn in her side. With her lover's help, she tried to use the allergenic pastry to send him to his grave.
Then, as fate would have it, Rory, who had a crush on Ethan Grant, stumbled upon the scene and saved him. After an awkward conversation where he completely missed the point, she was sent to work as a nurse at Grant Hospital.
'David Walsh must have been furious at the time,' Shirley Thorne thought to herself.
Because right after that, he started a loan shark company and immediately dragged Rory into it, luring her down the irreversible path of debt.
'Hmm, the logic checks out, but it doesn't have anything to do with Leo Graham.'
