"You should take your advice and stay out of what only concerns women. Meddling in women's friendships has cost you. I want my money," Edgar said, staying seated. "All of it."
Dale scoffed, put off by how Edgar acted. "The town has been wrong about you. All the rumours say that you have a mountain of wealth, but you come here and act like this for our money. For a small sum of money in comparison to what you are said to have."
"Well, I am not going to stay wealthy if I allow people like you to get off not paying my money. I just married one daughter off, and it was quite expensive. I have another who will marry soon. I need all of my money," Edgar demanded.
Edgar planned well so his family would be well taken care of for years. What he didn't plan was for Dale to benefit from it.
"We should give him the money and end this now," Erin said, starting to move, but Dale grabbed her hand.
"Like hell we'll pay this bastard that money," said Dale.
