Nothing Left to Want
“I’m not saying it isn’t true, but I could make up a better one: this fool and her money were welcomed everywhere.
I don’t know if what I did was so wrong or if I was always supposed to end up here. I was just trying to be happy that whole crazy year, when Milan moved out here and I got and lost the opportunity of a lifetime, and it seemed like Herbert had sort of given me a blank check, which, of course, he hadn’t. It was from my own money but since my so-called trustees kept threatening to tak...e it away, it didn’t really seem like my money, so I thought it was okay to buy things. Or maybe I did it because of the great week I had spent with Daddy, where he had treated me like his little princess again, that made me feel stupidly secure.
The money I spent the summer I turned twenty-five felt like revenge and it felt like a return to the only power I’d ever had, being Carey Kelleher, adored heiress to Kells V. Thinking about it now while I’m laying in cold urine and most likely getting rabies from rat bites, it all seems pretty crazy, but at the time it felt so good.MoreLess
