George had a small stroke and was in the hospital with his two sons, where he was weak but conscious. They had repeatedly assured him that they were prosperous businessmen who did not need his meager wealth. It was after dark when he overheard a whispered conversation in the hospital wing that made him doubt everything. While he slept, his sons discussed his estate with a tone tinged with greed and deceit.
They Didn’t Know
Neither George nor his sons Eric nor Giovanni knew that their dad had overheard them discussing his inheritance. They thought they could keep up the pretense that they were worried and concerned about him even though they knew the truth. Meanwhile, their father had joined forces with the cop who had saved his life a few days earlier, and neither of them knew about it. This was done to serve as a lesson for his sons.
