"What?" she whispered. Her fingers trembled as she put the remote down, her eyes locked on the screen.
The reporter continued, detailing the shocking turn of events. "Authorities have confirmed that Mrs. Madison died by apparent suicide, jumping from the balcony of her home earlier this evening."
Delilah’s mind raced. *How? Why?*
She barely had time to process the information when the bedroom door creaked open.
Her heart leaped, thinking it was Marco.
However, it was Mrs. Hayden who stepped inside.
Delilah quickly grabbed the remote, turning off the TV.
She narrowed her eyes, her voice tinged with suspicion. "Is something wrong, Mrs. Hayden?"
Mrs. Hayden offered a tight smile. "No, signora. I was just checking up on you."
