Ricky, however, was not letting up. "I'm just telling the truth! What is there to hide?"

Mrs. Slate scoffed at Lulu then. "I knew it-what an unseemly woman you are. Well, this suits me just fine. Now that Zachary is married, there's nothing between you two, so don't bother him ever again. In turn, I won't press charges regarding the banners."

"Hey, are you even listening? I told you-it wasn't Lulu. She's been with me all this while, and I can testify for her!" Ricky snapped, indignant at how prejudiced was Mrs. Slate acting.

"You? Testify? You've been defending her all this while. The best you can manage is perjury," Mrs. Slate laughed coldly, before adding in disdain," Truly... birds of the same feather flock together. Scum will always end up with scum."
