“Once everything is in my name, George won’t be a problem anymore.”
I froze.
For months, Lauren really had been constantly talking about my will.
On top of that, she had recently started organizing my heart medication herself.
Two weeks earlier, the brakes on my car had also failed.
At the time, I thought it was an accident.
After that night, I no longer did.
Emily lowered her eyes.
“Mr. George, I desperately need this job. I still haven’t saved enough money for my mother’s surgery. But if I stayed silent and something happened to you, I could never forgive myself.”
I looked at that young woman standing in front of me.
Lauren humiliated her every day.
She mocked her weight, her clothes, and her poverty.
