“Charles Domini took a long swallow of his beer and surveyed the bar. "Good riddance," he said plainly. Charles looked drunk to me. When Charles got drunk, Charles got mean. This was common knowledge in Lone Oak. Charles Domini owned the only other big ranch in the area; the Domini Ranch had been around as long as the Bennett Ranch. The difference was that Charles, unlike Glen, was not popular with the locals. Charles was too prone to being drunk and mean, and his ranch was run-down and ...untended. Periodically he logged a portion of it or sold some more off to developers. This made him rich, but it did not make him popular. I didn't know anyone who liked Charles Domini. He sat in the middle of a small group of people, which included several rough-looking men and his wife, Pat. The men all seemed pleased at Charles's statement. Pat looked disgusted. I'd known Pat for years, and I had never figured out what she was doing with Charles.MoreLessRead More Read Less
