“I don’t know yet.”
Dad leaned closer.
Inez opened another document.
“Three months ago, twenty-eight thousand dollars appeared in this escrow account.”
“From where?”
“Not your money.”
She looked at Dad.
“It came from a client.”
Dad’s face changed.
“What client?”
“A company called Bellweather Hospitality.”
I had never heard of it.
“They commissioned furniture restoration from Derek,” Inez continued. “If the invoices are legitimate, it’s the largest contract he’s ever had.”
Mom’s eyes widened.
“How large?”
“Potentially enough to repay everything he took from the household account.”
