Taking a Turn

Dale’s best friend, Brad Olivanti, described the turn of evens as the “perfect storm.” The situation that was okay back then suddenly became different. Stephanie was laid off from work. Now, she had to solely rely on Dale for income. However, the economy wasn’t kind of his business as well and clients slowly trickled away. In fact, Smith opened up to his friend and talked about his slowly fading marriage and compared to life at home as a juggling act. This concerned Brad because a happily married man wouldn’t say such a thing, but he brushed it off as frustration on his friend’s end.

Falling Out of Love

To their closest friends, it seemed as if Stephanie and Dale were falling out of love. She wanted out of the marriage. She met someone else and wanted to move on from the past, and to her, Dale was no longer in her future. So, who was this other man? Could he have been involved in what happened to her?
