Chapter 84 When Revenge Starts To Pay Off

• Becki calls me at work the next day. She’s sobbing so loudly on the phone that I can barely understand her – she’s borderline incoherent. I swallow my impatience as best I can while I try to get some sense out of her.
• Why she is calling me, I have no idea. I don’t know where she got this idea that we’re such great friends. I mean, sure, I’ve had a couple of lunches with her, but come on. She hardly knows me – well, as far as she’s aware, anyway.
• Still, I do my best to remain patient with her, mainly because I’m nosy as hell and want to know what’s going on with my family. I haven’t forgotten how they treated me, and I still want to get my own back.
