Now that Cecilia had won the lawsuit, Paula was obligated to return the money within two weeks. Failure to do so

“All right”

from Nicholas. “How have you been lately?”
This was the most ordinary of inquiries, to which Cecilia courteously responded, “I'm fine. How can | help you?”

off my stuff.””
