That evening, Dad called me.
I let the call go to voicemail.
His message was almost cheerful.
“Thomas, it’s your father. Pete says you visited the lake. Megan’s wedding could be a chance to bring everyone together. Let’s talk like adults.”
Como los adultos.
Como si abandonar a un niño de trece años fuera simplemente un viejo malentendido.
I saved the message.
Within two days, Sandra prepared a formal demand letter.
It required Ray to stop the unauthorized construction, remove the pavilion, and repair the damage within thirty days.
Diane signed it.
We also contacted her insurance agent.
He warned that an unpermitted structure and unsafe electrical installation could create substantial liability if wedding guests were injured.
Then I contacted the bank.
Un funcionario del fideicomiso confirmó que se habían realizado tres pagos a Ray después de que se cambiara la custodia.
El banco había solicitado reembolsos años antes.
