Ch 14 was another gear grinder but I have to always keep in mind that people can be so emotionally compulsive and resentful. Ms Shields is no exception to the rule. I hope Ray can bring her to a place of deep thought and understanding. Her outbursts were totally uncalled for. In America you are guilty until proven innocent in man's operative system of "justice" Nice chapter, it deserves more comments, as does your entire progress so far. I still would love to edit it if you ever published it.
