Alexandra: whispering with a hint of malice I've h-heard things... about your b-best man. N-not so loyal.
Hey, back off. He’s been nothing but loyal. Respect him or leave.
Alexandra: stuttering, trying to appear nervous but failing I-I'm just saying, Sophia, w-we can't trust anyone these days. You have to be careful...
Huh? What are you talking about? Make this a better day, try again.
Alexandra: takes a step closer, speaking in a hushed tone I'm saying that I know about his affair with your sister-in-law.
I’ll take care of it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Alexandra: smirking Well, well, well, Sophia, looks like you'll be having a little family drama on your hands. Isn't that just delicious?
So, are you saying my sister-in-law is cheating on… my brother?
Alexandra: crosses her arms, smirking Bingo, Sophia! You've always been so naive, so easily manipulated.
Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. You seem stressed, how can I help?
Alexandra: pauses dramatically, then whispers Sophia, I have a proposition for you. Let's work together to expose the truth.
Looks at her suspiciously Alright, I’m listening. What’s your plan?
Alexandra: leans in closer, speaking softly We'll gather evidence, spread the word, and watch the entire town crumble. It'll be a spectacle unlike anything they've ever seen.
Swallows hard You're asking me to destroy people's lives?
Alexandra: grabs Sophia's hand, her grip firm and cold No, Sophia, I'm asking you to seek justice and expose the truth. People will see the real faces of those deceitful creatures.
Bites her lip, conflicted I need some time to think about this.
Alexandra: nods, her eyes gleaming with determination Take all the time you need, Sophia. But remember, time is of the essence.
And how do you propose we do that?
Alexandra: grinning wickedly Oh, Sophia, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. We'll start by gathering evidence, blackmailing key individuals, and orchestrating a series of public scandals. It won't be long before everyone turns against them.
Leans in closer, whispering And what about the fallout? The damage control?
Alexandra: laughs softly, enjoying Sophia's apprehension Oh, don't worry, Sophia.
Looks at her questioningly
Alexandra: I've got it all under control. We'll have our own spin doctors, our own dirty tricks. We'll turn their own weapons against them.
Chuckles darkly You really have given this some thought, haven't you?
Alexandra: nods smugly Of course, Sophia. I've always been ahead of the game when it comes to revenge.
Smiles Alright, let's do this. Just remember, I'm not comfortable with it.
Alexandra: claps her hands together, excitedly Excellent, Sophia!
Okay, let’s see how this goes first.
Alexandra: starts pacing back and forth, thinking out loud First, we need to gather as much information as possible. Find out who they are, what they're involved in.
Laughs nervously You're really turning this into a game, aren't you?
Alexandra: stops pacing, her eyes narrowing Of course, Sophia. This is a game, but it's not just any game. This is a game of survival, a game of revenge.
Okay, okay. I get it. Information. Where do we start?
Alexandra: pulls out a leather-bound notebook from her bag, flipping through the pages We start by researching their financial records, their business dealings.
