Turning to Peyton, Dylan inquired, "Is he Mia's ex-husband?"

Peyton maintained his composure as he replied, "I'm sorry, but I can't disclose that information. I hope you understand the importance of maintaining discretion outside of these walls. Here's the confidentiality agreement for you to sign.”

Nevertheless, Dylan was determined to keep this scoundrel away from Mia!

In the dream, she relived her experiences in the Barrett residence, including her marriage to Timothy and the mistreatment she endured there.
