“It was blissful, she thought, to be alone with John and Louise and the baby, not to be constantly looking over her shoulder for Hetherington or half-expecting to find him inside every room that she entered. After a few days she could not understand why she was so bored and restless. John was busy for much of each day; Louise was frequently tired and had to rest; Jeremy could not be played with all day long. It was time to go back. At least she was usually kept busy at the Rowes’. Louise made li...fe uncomfortable for her by refusing to let the topic of Hetherington drop. She had become genuinely fond of him and was convinced that he could not be quite the villain that she had previously thought. “No one who loves children as he does can be a cruel man,” she told Elizabeth on one occasion. “And did you notice how much Jeremy loved him?

Their instincts never err.” Further, she was convinced that Hetherington still had strong feelings for her sister-in-law.MoreLessRead More Read Less
