They're talking about Richard Carlyle killing Vera as she knew about Mary. He's just guessing..n/t monmouth Feb 2012 #17

you mean Richard would pay someone else to do the dirty deed ... that is actually a good guess -- Tuesday Afternoon Feb 2012 #19

yes, she did go back to see Richard. Tuesday Afternoon Feb 2012 #34
