As she came back from the store she told herself that Mrs. Maloney was just going home with the vegetables on Thursday evening to cook supper for her husband. she wanted things to be all natural so there would be no need for acting. and there wasn't. when she got home and saw her husband on the floor dead, she cried her heart out.
lamb to the slaughter part 2
Quick! Come quick! Patrick's dead!
she called the police station and told them that her husband was dead.
they came very quick. there was police, doctors and investigators. they conformed that he was dead. the investigators asked what she had done before she found her husband dead and she just told them that she went to the store and came back to find him dead. they also talked to the grocer and he said that she was just a nice lady. the doctors and photographer left with the body and only the two police and investigators where left.they asked her more questions like if there was anything that could be used as a weapon in the house. she said no.
she offered them drinks and they all stood around her awkwardly. sargent noomen told her that her meat was still in the oven. she asked if they could do her a favor and eat it for her because they where such good friends with patrick since he was and investigator. they hesitated at first, but then they accepted it.
Mary was in the other room, listening to them talk about the case.
Probably right under our very noses.
In the other room, mary began to giggle.
Personally, I think it's right here on the premises.
