Sonny picked it up through the grapevine. Who told him first? It might have been Vince or Dusty over cards at lunch. Maybe it was Drew who’d been told it by his girlfriend who had heard it as a piece of gossip shared one afternoon in the ladies room. Whomever! Nevertheless, he knew Lois was sleeping with Bill, and that changed everything.
Now he saw it all in a different light. Was Lois really more responsible at her job? It didn’t dawn on him that Bill may have been manipulating Lois with some kind of threat disguised as a promise. No, she had slept her way to power. That was as clear as day. From that moment on, there would be nothing she could do or say which didn’t ring with that fact in his ears.
He couldn’t put it down.
