Watching the two of them in this rare brought me mene infections
I mate
but moments ago, James had arrogantly claimed that Lints White wanted to kill me. As it world heteve that soon Linda White was early another scheming, green tea type–someone manipolative for not me
James didn’t seem to be joking when he said it which left only one possibility. If I hadn’t agreed to the droner bark the James wond have tried to turn me in a widow
While I swt still lost in thought, James nuddenly jumped up, shouting. This is amazing Ir ́s you who won! I’m uned! You didn’t want to remarry fige–but just give me two hundred million. You can keep one hundred million for yourself, and well both be
“What did you say?” I thought I’d misheard him. It wasn’t until James repeated himself three times that I realized I had
His shamelessness left me speechless. “At the civil affairs office, you said that even if I were dying of illness, I shoulder bother you. And so, when it’s ponut turis, you can’t live by your own words?
Yuri, clearly tired of kneeling, stood up as well “That’s different! You’re a woman, and my son is a mant He married you, so the Sottery money is rightfully his. What’s wrong with him taking two hundred million?“
“You had the fact that you won the lottery! That’s a crime. If you don’t hand over the money. I’ll post everything online and ruin your reputation
James nodded confidently. “Exantly. Take the money while you can. If not, I’m happy to split it 5050. You take one and
and a half billion. Otherwise, if this goes to court or hits the internet, you’ll be finished. Everyone will hate you, and you won’t even have a spend your money.”
Hearing this, I couldn’t help but nod repeatedly. “Fine, fine”
I grew even more curious. James’s father had died of cancer when he was still in high school, and Yuri never remarried. So, where did this imaginary
Their faces lit up with excitement as they reached out for the money.
But continued, “Then go ahead. Report it to the police, take me to court, or post about it online. Just don’t forget that our house has surveillanc cameras. And the divorce agreement you forced me to sign specifically mentioned the lottery winnings. Using your own words against you, I have money and time–I can play this game for as long as you want.”
I paused deliberately. “I just wonder if James will survive long enough for the trial. Or if the loan sharks will let you Love that long”
With that, I shut the door in their faces. No matter how much noise they made outside, I didn’t open it again. It wasn’t until they wore themselves out that I finally called a security company to escort me to my newly purchased villa.
James and Yuri tried to contact me a few more times, but soon, James was hospitalized due to his sudden shift from euphoria to despair. With no money for treatment, he could only lie there, waiting for death.
Yuri, unwilling to let her son die, begged me day after day. When that proved fruitless, she turned to Linda White
But Linda was no pushover. Every time Yuri confronted her, Linda called loan collectors to deal with her. Linda never lifted a finger herself
After a few encounters, Yuri gave up and had no choice but to sit by James’s hospital bed, waiting for the inevitable.
Despite all their threats, they never contacted the media or the police. Perhaps they knew deep down they couldn’t win against me. Or maybe they still held onto some delusion that I would swoop in like some savior and rescue them at the last minute.
But their hopes were in vain.
A fené months later, James took his last breath.
Yuri was inconsolable. She blamed Linda White for everything. Following her, she tried to kill her. But Yuri was just a grief–stricken old woman–weak and exhausted. She failed to kill Linda, only managing to blind her in one eye.
Yuri didn’t escape unscathed either. Severely injured herself, she was hospitalized and later imprisoned for attempted murder. She spent the rest of her dags rotting away in a prison cell.
