“Did you really have a hand in this?” I asked her.
Renee smiled.
“I used to work for the Foundation years ago. I was the Executive Assistant to the Founder. A few weeks ago, I received an email by mistake from one of the Foundation’s internal addresses. Someone forwarded a candidate profile to the Founder, but typed my old email instead of his assistant’s because we have the same name.”
She gave a small, almost ironic smile.
“I still have my old company email linked to my phone. It should not have gone through anymore, but it did.”
“It had Mrs. Harlow’s full application. She was one of the top candidates. They were planning a final home-visit dinner today.”
That explained everything.
“The video…” I started.
“I still had the Founder’s private contact. When I saw what happened with Mrs. Harlow… I couldn’t ignore it. Not after what your son did.”
