“Brandon, they’re twisting everything to destr0y us, so please don’t believe them!” Brenda cried as she was led away.
“Did you actually give my daughter something harmful?” Brandon demanded, his voice breaking with anger.
“No, I would never do anything like that!” Brenda frantically denied it.
“Then explain what was inside that bottle!” Brandon shouted.
“I don’t know what was inside!” she insisted desperately.
“You worked in a retail pharmacy for six years, so don’t pretend you know nothing about this!” Brandon yelled back.
“That still doesn’t prove anything!” Brenda screamed as the officers continued escorting her down the hallway.
“You sat beside my bed and promised me those drops were nothing more than harmless vitamins!” Brandon said, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Because that’s what I believed!” Brenda protested.
“Then who gave them to you?” Brandon pressed, moving a little closer.
Brenda became completely silent, refusing to look directly into his eyes.
