Story
The story
Maggie Langford has always played the fool, letting people underestimate her while she quietly turns every slight to her advantage. When she marries Alex, his inseparable childhood friend Penny makes it her mission to humiliate the new bride, whispering crude claims about Alex at the wedding toast and waiting for Maggie to shatter.
Maggie does not shatter. With wide, innocent eyes she turns Penny's joke back on her, and the ballroom's laughter shifts from Maggie to Alex. As Penny scrambles to call it all a joke, Maggie keeps playing the dim-witted victim, letting slip the humiliating childhood stories Penny supposedly shared, until Alex's fury lands on Penny instead. Then Alex collapses, and a surgeon warns that strong emotional shocks are dangerous for his heart.
In the hospital, Maggie weeps to Alex's parents, Miriam and Arthur, and lets Penny walk straight into the trap she has laid.
Opening excerpt
I remember when I was a kid, my grandmother used to call me a "bad investment," a drain on the family coffers just because I wasn't a boy. In a fit of petty genius, I took every cent of my college fund and blew it on the most expensive premium life insurance policy I could find. If I was going to be an investment, I was going to be a protected one.
