Nicholas's POV “What did you know, Mom?” I asked quietly.She looked at the floor for a long time, her hands were tight on the arms of the chair. “After the accident I knew something was wrong almost immediately," she said finally, voice low. "Your father didn't tell me anything, but he was already on the phone before the police had barely finished the first report and then he was telling everyone we needed to accept she was dead.""I remember that," I said leaning forward. "It was hours after she signed the divorce papers and I thought I'd killed her.""Yes, your father was..." She paused, shaking her head once. "He was organized, like the steps were already written down somewhere.""Did you ask him about it?" I asked. "If he was somehow involved?""I tried to," she said quietly. "He said certain things were family matters and shouldn't leave the house. Everytime I pushed, that was the answer, so after awhile I stopped pushing."She wiped under one eye with the side of her thumb.“
