L76.恨意的蔓延

*July 15, afternoon rain*

I am continually amazed by how easy the rich are to cheat! Recent work has made me a great deal of money, much more than I ever made in the past combined.

There's nothing to stop me from making even more.

Some nights I still catch myself thinking of Browney and am overwhelmed with a feeling I cannot describe.

Then it fades and I can feel once again the loathing in her parents' eyes. How pathetic I was then!

Curses! I can never let myself become that weak again.

(You pause for a moment to reflect on Hayden's downward spiral into a life of avarice and deceit.)

(Could it truly bring him everything he wanted? You anxiously read on.)

With seemingly limitless amounts of money at my fingertips, I can have anything I want!

Surely I can even buy my own happiness?
