The news broke the following day that Graydon Meyer confessed to the murder of Lacy Knighton and would be receiving a sentence of fifteen years to life. Alice couldn't believe it. Aaron had been right!
She should have known better; he was always an excellent judge of character. It was unbelievable that she had ever been attracted to a murderer. But Alice's judgment of others had always been poor. If her judgment was half as sound as Aaron's, she never would have married that jerk Brock Kelly.
A jerk who was currently trying to weasel out of giving her enough alimony to live on. Her lawyer was doing his best but it was going to take a while to negotiate the terms. The optimistic estimate she had been given was six months. The pessimistic one was two years.
