Chapter 56 Jordan Bennet
- The sun was scorching hot, but the woman was washing clothes outside using the concrete washing basin. Sweat was streaming down her face. Her neighbour, Becky Sparrow, approached her smiling and said, “Tess, did you hear that Abigail’s son bought her a nice house in the suburbs?”
- Tess Bennet looked at her friend with jealousy written in her face and replied, “Becky, some people are lucky. I don’t like Abigail; she is full of herself because her son is a doctor. Don’t worry my friend; I heard that the municipality rates in the suburbs are very high. She will not have money to buy food and come back to the slums.”
- Becky was disappointed in her friend and replied, “Tess, we have to be happy for others. If the Lord opens the doors for them, maybe He will remember us and blessed us too. Our children are doing well in school. I believe one day they will become great men and buy us beautiful houses in the suburbs as well. I have faith that my life will not stay like this forever.” Unbeknownst to her, it would come to pass soon.
