“When you were most in need, I even handed over my own savings, while your mother wouldn’t spend a single penny. See the difference?”
I finally saw things clearly. From now on, you’re not to spend a dime of my money. If you want something, buy it with your own money
Though you’re not very mobile, you can give me your payment password, and I’ll order things for you
With no choice, Helen gave me the password.
I transferred all the money from her account into mine and grinned, “I ordered you your favorite Mexican food”

The mention of money lit up Karens face

“It’s Garry who led my daughter astray and caused the accident. My poor daughter…”
The officer’s face froze. It was probably the first time he’d heard someone discuss an affair so brazenly
“Officer, can I get a copy of this surveillance footage?”
I wanted to use it as evidence of Helen’s infidelity to try and ensure she’d leave empty–handed in the divorce
“That should be fine, but you’ll need to resolve the compensation soon
Karen pulled me aside.
“What do you need the footage for?”
“Karen, I’ve got some friends who know editing. I’ll just have them erase that part of the video, so they won’t have evidence”

Garry was severely injured, his leg wrapped in heavy bandages, completely defenseless against Karen.
Please, let’s talk this out!” he pleaded.
