A Plunge Into Betrayal
Beck hated betrayal above all else, especially the humiliation of being cheated on and made a scapegoat.
Furious, he brutally beat Katie nearly to death. He also revoked all the property he had given her and sent her child to an orphanage.
Penniless and desperate, Katie tried to find work, but Beck had warned every employer about her, leaving her unable to get hired.
With no other options, she turned to singing in bars and relying on wealthy men for support. Eventually, one of those men's wives caught her and beat her badly once more.
Katie blamed Beck for all her suffering, which ultimately drove her to carry out that day's acid attack.
