Sweet Texas Fire
“Wilkinson, but Mr. Cooper’s will was very explicit. You cannot sell the land for twelve months.”
This wasn’t the news she wanted to hear. “Is that even legal to put a stipulation like that in a will? I mean, Jack knew I wasn’t staying in Texas for much longer. I still don’t get why he did this.”

Charlotte cringed when she heard the indignation in the lawyer’s voice. Way to go. Get the one person who could help you... offside with a single sentence.
“Look, Mr. Rodgers, I didn’t mean to imply you would do anything unethical. It’s just that I’m still in shock about receiving this bequest at all.

Especially when it seems his son Gage was expecting to receive the land.”
“I understand how much of a shock this was for you, but I’ve known Jack Cooper for a very long time.MoreLess
