Alvirah and Willy were passing Roger and Yvonne’s suite and could not help but hear that they were shouting at each other. Alvirah immediately stopped to catch every word. The last words she caught were “federal prison,” before another couple came down the hallway and she was forced to keep moving.
The minute Willy closed the door of their suite she turned to him, “Willy, did you hear all that? They hate that poor old woman.”
“I heard more than that. I think he’s stealing from her. The last words I heard were ‘twenty years in a federal prison.’ ”
“Willy, I’m telling you, I think that they’re desperate. And I think that she’s even more desperate than he is. Do you think it is possible that either of them would try to hurt Lady Em?”
