"Those who spread rumors about their daughter-in-law having an affair should also be punished. Don't you think?
"Who said I was having an affair? Tell him or her to be here to confront me!"
Wendy was startled and said, feeling guilty.
"Georgia, don't be mad. If you don't want to see me, I'll leave right away..."
She started to play the victim again!
She started the whole thing, but once she cried, it became my fault.
Our neighbor, Harvey Blake, chimed in.
"We didn't mean anything. Don't make a big deal out of it."
I said to him with a smile.
"Harvey, what were you doing with Hazel in the hotel last time?"
Hazel Wolfe was also one of our neighbors. Harvey's face turned red, and he pointed at me, cursing me, saying that I was full of shit!
"I didn't mean anything. Don't make a big deal out of it, Harvey."
I repeated what he said. His expression changed a few times, and he didn't say another word.
See? Villains ought to be punished.
Wendy stopped talking and left in a hurry.
I stared at her back and noticed that she kept looking back as she walked, as if afraid of being seen.
I followed her when she wasn't looking and saw a man riding a bike to pick her up, and he affectionately touched her belly.
