"If he keeps his word," Dorothy said.

"He has no choice," Roger said. "He can't control her any more. Do you think she'll still visit Mrs. Anderson?"

"I think she will," Dorothy said. "She said Mrs. Anderson had been very kind to her."

"So... about my payment," Roger suddenly smirked. "I have brought your case to a successful conclusion."

"I have no money," she said. "Does this mean that I will have to work for you even longer?"

"I wasn't thinking of that kind of trade," Roger said.

Dorothy gave him a look. "You, Roger Smith, are a louse."
