The tragedy of Nora and Morgan was real, and so was their antisocial nature. Misplaced sympathy would only invite disaster.
Letting Nora and Paul destroy each other was a way to clear two dangers at once. Now, with all the loose ends tied, the air seemed momentarily lighter.
Wyatt broke the silence. “How about we talk cooperation?”
Yunice shot him a sidelong glance. She had no wish to be tangled up with him any more than necessary. Even with the hospital reopening, she preferred to turn to the Crawford family and Quinton when she needed support.
