Because I have already decided exactly what gift I will give him for our anniversary.
The next morning I visited our long-time family lawyer, Mr. Harris.
He was surprised to see me.
— Margaret, did something happen?
I put an old leather folder on his desk.
— Please check these documents.
He began to read.
After a few minutes he took off his glasses.
— Does Robert know that you still have these documents?
- No.
— Does he know that most of the company’s shares are registered in your name?
I nodded silently.
Forty-five years ago, when we got married, my father left me a small sum of money.
Robert dreamed of opening his own construction company.
I invested every last penny into his business.
My father insisted that the investment be properly documented.
