“Avery, everything I’ve said is true! Why won’t you believe me but instead trust an outsider? After all, we are cousins! Doesn’t our years of relationship count for something? Does it not outweigh someone you’ve just met recently? I’m already in this state; what reason do I have to lie?”

Phoebe’s tears fell uncontrollably, as if she had been wronged to the extreme.
