Not As It Seems
Alyssa finally had to open up to Katie. She had seen the sad situation for herself and was left with no choice but to really talk about her husband. So, she pulled her daughter aside and talked to Katie in private. She told her about Steven’s abuse and how she was forced to give her up for adoption when she was a few months old.
Indifferent to Everything
Alyssa may have told Katie about everything, but she also noticed her daughter’s strange reaction, or lack thereof. Nothing about Steven’s violent past concerned her and looking back, Alyssa should have already seen some warning signs. Her daughter and husband were bonding well, but little did she know that there was more to the story.
