Sweet Nothings

"Tch. You're both full of sweet nothings now, but will you still talk to me so calmly after I tell you the truth? Do you really think that I'd believe you? Don't think that you'll be able to fool me. I've lived much longer than you. Do you think I won't see through your lies? You've promised to give me a benefit and then told me that you wouldn't do anything to me so that I'd be tricked into telling you the truth. Once that happens, I'll have no choice but to listen to whatever you guys say, even if you want to punish me, right? I wonder what's going on in your mind. Do you really think I'm a fool? I'm not a fool. I'm a genius!"

Linda James was probably the only one who could describe herself like that, yet it was exactly because of this that Yvette Larson wanted to know just what her mother had said to Melanie Taylor.
