Sally's lack of integrity cost her both the honesty of her husband, and the potential stability his job already provided. Following along with her idea seems to have corrupted "you" further here, elaborating on the money-grubbing behaviors to the extent of being willing to participate in an elaborate lie. Poor Emilia will probably have trouble trusting after that! Thank you for sharing your story with us, and for your engagement with other members of the community.
Emilia will so be heartbroken. She had trusted that she had found thrive of her life.
And for Sally, it's a new beginning of struggling and hustling for her.
I really do appreciate your critique on this work. Thanks a bunch.
