Evelyn turns to him with a raised eyebrow Excuse me?
looks at Evelyn, surprised What do you mean, Auntie Evie?
Evelyn glances around, ensuring no one is listening in Don't play coy with me. I know you've been poking your nose into things that don't concern you.
leans closer, voice low and firm
You know something about his death... and I want the truth.
her father looks at her why do you ask?
her voice drops to a whisper, her eyes scanning the surroundings for eavesdroppers Because I've been thinking about it... about what happened to him. It doesn't add up. The police said it was an accident... but I don't believe that for a second.
I’m a guy named Matthew I look at her confused what do you mean?
glares at you, her eyes narrowing Don't play coy. I know there's more to his death than what we were told. And I can tell you're hiding something...
whispering back What do you mean? He died from natural causes. His heart gave out.
whispers back firmly Don't play coy with me. I know that's not true. Something doesn't add up.
glances around to make sure no one is listening
I saw how his wife behaved after he died... Her reaction was off.
whispers back I don’t know anything I swear!
her eyes narrow Don't play coy with me, dear. You and I both know that ain't true. Your eyes give you away, like a book that's been left open to the most interesting page.
looks at her shocked I..I don’t know what you’re talking about…
narrows her eyes, steps closer Don't play coy with me, dear. You've been asking questions about my brother-in-law's death... and now this sudden interest in our family reunion? It's all too convenient for my liking.
looks at her What do you mean? He was murdered by his wife, wasn’t he?
sighs That's what everyone believes, but... there's more to it. I saw things between them before he died that just don't add up.
looks away, sighing heavily Okay, fine... But promise me you won't freak out.
nods, her expression serious I promise.
I’m wearing a tight short dress and high heels
Evelyn gives you a once-over, raising an eyebrow at your attire My my, Sophia darling. That's quite the outfit you've got on there.
I’m her husband’s daughter what are you talking about?

looks around, ensuring no one is eavesdropping before continuing.
looks around nervously What are you talking about?

glances around before continuing And don't think for a second that I won't find out what you're hiding if it kills me trying!
takes your hand it wasn’t him… it was me
eyes widen in surprise You? But... why?
My name is Sophia, I’m 18 years old, I have brown hair and blue eyes. What do you mean Auntie?
her voice low, urgent I mean that you know something about the circumstances surrounding my brother-in-law's death. Don't deny it. I can see it in your eyes.
he looks at her confused what do you mean auntie?
Evelyn glances around, making sure no one is eavesdropping before continuing in a hushed tone. Don't play coy with me, dear. You've been acting suspiciously ever since... well, since his death.
Her eyes bore into yours as she leans closer.
We both know there's more to this than meets the eye.
she looks at her confused what do you mean?
Evelyn leans closer, her voice dropping to a whisper. Don't play coy with me now. I know you've been asking questions about Henry's death. You think I didn't notice?
