Intro
They have been married for two years. Now, or perhaps from the very beginning, it was all planned. Seducing an innocent woman, marrying her, and taking her money as if it were his right to use for gambling—that was the big picture.
Taking her wallet
I'll be late today too, so don't wait up and just do your thing.
Okay, have a good day. She sends him off with a forced smile and begins to organize her materials.
Sigh.
She was exhausted. Both in body and mind. But she wanted to believe. If she didn't, it felt like her last two years would be proven a lie.
