Chapter 11
Elliott’s illness worsened over time, and during moments of anger, he would harm Katelyn. There was one instance where he kicked Katelyn so hard that he broke her ribs.
When he was depressed, he would harm himself, slapping himself wildly in the middle of the night,

She spread rumors everywhere, causing trouble at Elliott’s parents‘ place, causing trouble at Elliott’s company, and finally, due to financial harm to others, she was taken into custody by the
police.
