Everything was falling into place for Max, and he was getting ready to walk out the door, he knew that the desperation would kick in for Karen at some point, that she would realise what she was missing, but just as Max was going to step out, Karen had shouted at him.
"So you did all of this for money in the end!" Karen shouted. "I would have paid you for your work, you didn't have to… you didn't have to buy my department store from me!"
Her voice cracked slightly at the end. It wasn't just anger anymore. It was frustration mixed with regret.
Max turned around, in a lot of ways Karen looked pitiful, but he remembered what type of person she was. How she had mistreated him even when he was in the new body he was in.
How many times the old Max must have been abused and shunned by her, and it looked like it wasn't just Max she treated this way, just a look at the employee by her side with the red faced cheeks showed a lot.
