Emily le repoussa de toutes ses forces et saisit une arme qui traînait par terre, elle appartenait à l’un des hommes qu’Angelo avait tués, et s’assurant qu’il y avait une grande distance entre eux, elle visa l'arme sur lui. Ses mains tremblaient, mais elle ne se laisserait pas faire. — "Tu crois vraiment que ça va me faire peur, ma petite ?" Angelo rit, son rire sinistre résonnant dans ses oreilles tandis qu’il parlait d’une manière sadique. — "T’es un meurtrier, d’abord tu as tué ma tante, maintenant tu as tué des innocents, combien d'autres vas-tu tuer ?" Emily hurla, sa main tremblant tandis que la peur la saisissait. — "Tu veux vraiment savoir ?" Angelo demanda, s’avançant encore plus près.

Ma belle-mère a eu un accident de voiture et est entrée en salle d'urgence. J'ai passé plus de vingt appels à mon mari qui est avocat avant qu'il ne réponde. « Qu'est-ce que tu fais encore ? Camille a eu un problème, je l'ai aidée. Arrête de faire des histoires. » J'ai retenu mes larmes et je lui ai dit que maman avait eu un accident et que j'avais besoin de cent mille euros. Mais il a cru son premier amour et m'a répondu méchamment : « En quoi l'accident de ta mère me concerne ? N'essaie pas de me soutirer de l'argent pour ta famille. Laisse-moi tranquille, je suis occupé. » Il a raccroché brutalement et ma belle-mère n'a pas survécu à l'opération. Mais trois jours plus tard, au tribunal, j'ai vu mon mari plaider éloquemment en faveur de son pemier amour, accusée de conduite en état d'ivresse. Grâce à son éloquence, il a fait acquitter son ex en invoquant un manque de preuves. J'ai été anéantie et je lui ai demandé le divorce dès la fin de l'audience. Mais il a paniqué. « Ma mère t'a toujours bien traitée ! Si tu divorces, elle sera triste ! » J'ai éclaté de rire froidement et je lui ai jeté à la figure les factures de l'hôpital et le certificat de décès. Idiot, il ne savait même pas encore qu'il n'avait plus de mère.
