Sister-in-law Nancy seemed a bit troubled as she said, "I don't have much on hand right now either."
Luis's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Then why didn't you tell me?"
Nancy carefully acted coquettish as she said, "I don't get a salary from the bar, and the dividends won't come until the end of the year."
"I noticed that Lily seemed a little bothered by it, so I thought I should invest in doing something of my own and stop always spending your money…"
Damn it, why did she have to be so sensible?
He needed his old, vain, money-worshipping sister-in-law back. He needed her to be endlessly wasteful and extravagant. Why the hell did she have to follow her sister down that misguided path of being a virtuous wife and devoted mother?
How foolish, how utterly foolish!!
