“How do you know that, Viv?”
“I asked them.” She tossed her braid over her shoulder. “I saw them in the yard one day, and I asked if those young men were friends of theirs. Do you know what they told me?”
“What?” The blood was thrumming in Lara’s veins now, causing her ears to pulse and her temples to throb.
“Andrew and Mason were helping those boys.” Viv was beaming as if she were their grandmother.
Lara added Viv to the list of unsuspecting people the twins had fooled.
“Helping how?”
“Those young men were down on their luck, runaways maybe, homeless. The boys were giving them some food, some of their old clothes. Imagine losing their own parents and thinking enough of others to help.”
“Yeah, they could put Mother Teresa to shame.”
Viv’s blue eyes flickered. “Do you think one of those scruffy boys could’ve set the fire?”
Lara placed her hands on her knees. More likely those scruffy boys were auditioning for Mason’s body double. “Not sure, Viv, but you’ve been really helpful.”
“Even though my house was in my daughter’s name, she never lived there during that time. She was already out of the house, but when she told me the FBI had contacted her about the Moretti twins, I wanted to help.”
“We absolutely appreciate it, Viv. Call me directly if you think of anything else.” Lara placed her card on the table next to the remote control. “I’ll let you get back to your show, and you can fast-forward through that kiss.”
“Poor girl. That man is a scoundrel.” Viv shook her finger at the TV screen. “How about you, Lara? Have you ever kissed a scoundrel?”
A wave of heat washed into Lara’s face, and she put her hand to her throat. “I sure have, Viv. I’ve kissed a scoundrel or two.”
