At Her Twins’ Funeral, a Mother-in-Law Attacks the Grieving Mom—Then a Four-Year-Old Reveals What She Saw in Their Bottles.

Chapter 17 / 27
Chapter 17 - TREVOR MOVES OUTI asked Trevor to leave before any court ordered it.

Emma stayed with me.
Temporary family-court orders limited Trevor’s unsupervised time while the investigation continued—not because anyone believed he intentionally harmed the twins, but because his failure to disclose his suspicion about the bottles raised serious judgment concerns.
He fought that.
“I’m her father.”
“Yes.”
“You think I’d hurt Emma?”
“I think you protected your mother while Luke was in a hospital.”
His face collapsed.
“That’s not fair.”
“No.”
I breathed.
“It isn’t.”
