Marcus finally turned the tablet toward Nathan, but he did not hand it over right away. The former operations chief looked at him for a long second and said there was something Nathan needed to understand before he went inside for Lily. Whatever had happened during those 3 hours 41 minutes was no longer limited to the driveway.
Nathan stared at the screen.
The wet tarmac stretched behind them, bright under the vehicle lights. One of the SUVs idled nearby. Marcus kept one hand against the tablet and lowered his voice.
“You need to know what Claire was doing with that phone,” he said.
Nathan’s jaw tightened.
“I already know. She was recording Lily.”
“That’s not all she was recording.”
Marcus finally released the tablet.
Nathan looked down.
The first video was the doorbell footage he had watched from the aircraft. Lily barefoot on the driveway. Unicorn pajamas. Tears on her cheeks. Meredith blocking the door. Brooke dumping water near her feet while Vanessa held the dish soap and Erin laughed. Claire standing behind them with her phone raised.
