“From my mother and from Maya,” David said.
“Yes. And probably from other people.”
Maya’s face tightened.
“Do you think my mother is involved?”
“I don’t know,” Daniel replied. “But based on what she said during the call, she may be a victim too.”
David stood near the window, gently rocking Liam.
“What about the insurance policy?”
Daniel turned the laptop toward them.
“Your father, Thomas Bennett, owned several small rental buildings with Samuel Reeves. Six weeks before Thomas died, he changed the beneficiary on one life insurance policy from Eleanor Bennett to Marisol Santos.”
“Why?”
“The form doesn’t say.”
“And the note about a daughter?”
“It was attached to the paperwork. The insurer kept a scanned copy.”
Daniel clicked on a file.
A handwritten note appeared on the screen.
The ink was faded, but David recognized the slant of the letters immediately.
