Ernest’s face turned ashen before he forced a cold laugh. He sneered, “Kid, I almost fell for your tricks. You’re putting on quite a show, but do you really think I’m that gullible?”
Andrew shrugged casually and said, “Whether you believe me or not, Ernest, you’ll find out in three days.”
Ernest’s heart pounded as his confidence wavered. When misfortune struck, it usually hit hard and fast, and if what this young man said about a terminal illness was true, he would be in serious trouble.
