John Gardner made up his mind to buy his
wife a very unusual present—one she could not
resist. So he asked the salesman to show him—
The realization came suddenly and now he was frightened—this strange man who needed friends as a spider needs flies—in order to survive. His wealth had drawn them of course; a fact he refused to believe. But even unlimited resources could not hold them and insult and abuse drove them all finally away. Yet he continued to insult and abuse while painfully seeing them leave. Because that was the kind of man he was.
Until now they were all gone, the dear ones, the relatives, even the fawners and he realized in panic that only Dolores was left.
But she will stay. There is no cause to worry. She will stay because she loves me because she married me.
