Chapter 16 - THE SECOND RECORDING

Teresa found another clip on Patricia’s cloud account.

Different night.

Oscar and Patricia arguing after I refused the condo refinance in January.

Oscar:

“Lucy thinks because her name is on the deed, I’m disposable.”

Patricia:

“She said no to collateral, not to you.”

Oscar:

“Same thing.”

That sentence mattered.

No was abandonment.

A boundary was betrayal.

Patricia:

“You cannot punish her for protecting what her mother left.”

Oscar:

“I have spent four years paying into that place.”

Patricia:

“Then divorce and ask a court what you’re entitled to.”

Oscar:

May you like

“I’m not losing my family over a piece of paper.”

Yet he had built his plan out of paper.
