transparent with her even then. Mrs. Alston probably just doesn’t trust me enough. She wanted to use the Walshes to keep an eye on me and to control me. Amelie didn’t bother pointing this out as she felt like there was no need to expose Melissa. “Well, you should try to keep things a secret from now on.
