I, Nora Holden-Walker, looked at the papers that had been just given to me by Rebecca Harper, the young woman I love like a daughter and the young woman that makes my youngest son happy. I wondered why Holly Harper, Rebecca's mother, just opened up and given Rebecca her trust when Rebecca would've only had to wait three more years for it. I doubt it would've mattered because Rebecca, in either case, still would've given it to me.

I meant what I told Rebecca. The money was hers, but I would hold on to it for her anyway.

I wondered how and why this all came about. I knew Rebecca didn't want anything to do with her mother. I knew to Rebecca that meant cutting off all ties and that meant not accepting the money.

But I also knew Holly enough to know that money would be something to hold over Rebecca's head. That would be something that Rebecca wouldn't enjoy because Rebecca, too, also knew her mother well.

I wondered if Holly knew that Rebecca had handed over the money to me.

I tapped my finger against my mouth. They are, or at least Rebecca, is apart of the Walker family. I wondered how long until news got to Holly that Rebecca had given the money to me. Because if you're apart of the Walker family, then no secret is safe.
