Chapter 8

David hadn’t been to his grandmother’s since he’d married Rebecca, or as he called her when no one was around, Becky. Becky had made it perfectly clear that she didn’t care for the old bat any more than he did. But to be summoned this way, and told not to be late, was something he’d been both hoping for and dreading for some time. He was hoping she was going to tell him about the will, but afraid she was going to tell him to straighten up or else. Straightening up wasn’t something he thought he could live with.

He’d had his sources in the house. Not very good ones, but he had them. And up until a few weeks ago, he’d been keeping up with his grandmother goings on as much as if he was living in the house with her. Then all the information had dried up. Not just dried up, but the two people he’d had working there had suddenly just stopped contacting him, even about their pay, which he was having more and more difficulty getting to them all the time. His wife had told him that his credit line was no longer available to him. She was next on his list of things to wash his hands of once the old bat was dead and rotting in hell where she belonged.

Kason answered the door when David rang the bell. He was never sure if he should have just walked in or knocked. But since no one told him to just come on in when he’d been there the few times he had, he’d stuck with pushing the bell. Kason asked him to meet the family in the parlor.

“Family?”

Of course, Kason didn’t say anything to his query. The man had been treating him as if he were nothing since before his father and mother had died. David had lived with his aunt and uncle until he’d gotten his first check from his mom’s estate and had never looked back. He thought that his aunt and uncle had died a few months back, but since he didn’t care, he’d never looked into it. They didn’t have much anyway, and what little they might have had would have gone to their only child. A girl who had not liked him there as much as he didn’t care to be living in her home.

As soon as he walked in the room, he knew something was up. The lawyer was sitting in the chair closest to the fireplace, a place that David had always assumed as his own at his own house. There were three couples there as well, none of which he knew, so he ignored them all. The kid who was apparently with them stared at David like he wanted a piece of him, but David just ignored him in favor of walking to his grandmother. He leaned down to give her a kiss on the cheek, and had to refrain from strangling her when she pushed him away.
