Jessica?

A

I was Jessica Welles. About 11 years ago I was anyway. Reece’s first wife, you know. Are you Phoebe by any chance? You must be. Super. Sorry. Just a minute. Better let her out poor thing. It’s all right. You’re safe now, Ruella. It’s Jessica. Jessica. Just a second. I’m getting you out of there. Hang on. Just find out how he’s ties this. Oh I see, yes. Simple enough. There you go.

Q

Ruella

What’s your husband do?

A

Rory? I’m not absolutely sure. But he’s always terribly, terribly busy.

24
Q

24
Ruella

Was it my note that did it? Is that why you’re here?

A

Let’s say it sort of clinched things. I suppose if I hadn’t got it, I might have stayed with Reece and..

25
25 Poo What was in the note then?
Oh. Don’t you know? Didn’t she tell you? Just a second. It’s inspired.
26
26 Ruella You haven’t still got it?
Goes everywhere with me. See? Not to be opened until 22 March 1975.
27
27 Ruella You did wait?
With enormous self control. For me.
28
28 Ruella And?
And. Congratulations. Yesterday you had your first child, a girl-7lb 5 oz.. 6oz actually.
29
29 Ruella Sorry
7lb 5 oz. By now you have almost certainly named her Rachel Louise Elizabeth. Please god you will live to enjoy her.
30
30 Poo Proof positive
Well, I think it was the PS about the caesarean that really convinced me, though. Thank you.
31
31 Ruella Here’s to life
Life
32
32 Ruella It’s also the reason I’m still here
Oh well. One could turn.
33
33. Ruella Lucky you came in when you did.
Well it wasn’t really that lucky. I spent all evening sitting in that store room next door.
34
34 Ruella Did you
Spent a small fortune bribing the floor waiter. I sat there waiting to see if Julian turned up.
35
35 Ruella You might’ve told us.
Yes, I know it’s awful but -even till just now I wasn’t 100% sure. I mean since you warned me against events that in the end it never happened thank God, because I avoid them, I had no real way of knowing if they ever would have happened anyway. If I hadn’t avoided them. Do you see?
36
36 Ruella For gods sake, I predicted your baby.
It could’ve been a lucky guess.
37
37 Ruella Lucky guess!
Well, you know.
38
38 Ruella So you wanted to make sure he was actually going to push me off the talking before you decided to stop him?
No, I was always going to stop him. And I did. I thought I was rather good. I remembered in the confession he’d said he killed his mother. I thought if I pretended to be her, I might give him a fright.
39
39 Ruella A fright?
I remembered he was always pictures of her. terrifying looking woman. like a black widow spider.
40
40 Ruella Just a fraction hit or miss?
I did have the gun as well. Just in case.
41
41 Poo Gun?
This one. It’s my husband Rory’s. I borrowed it. But I’m not an awfully good shot. I don’t even know if it’s loaded.
42
42 Ruella Put it away!
All right. Rory‘s got masses of guns. He adores them. We have guns everywhere. He’s promised to take me out soon, somewhere quiet, teach me to shoot.
43
43 Ruella Women that drive men to mud we poor thing.
There’s a huge crows down there now.
44
44 | Ruella we don’t want them looking up here do we?
Oh no. Sorry.
45
45 Harold Very nice to see you again mrs. mrs...
Rizzini. Countess Rizzini, actually.
46
46 Harold Just one of those nights. Excuse me
What was that all about?
47
47 Ruella It’s all past history
Well, thank you for that. Bedtime for me, I think. Get a couple of hours, anyway.. we’re back to Rome in the morning. Ruella, we must meet up. Have lunch together or something. Next time we’re in London.
48
48 Ruella I’m as free as a bird
You are going to divorce him then?
49
49 Ruella Wouldn’t you?
I did.
50
50 Ruella Yes, of course.
Perhaps without Julian, he might be a lot nicer. Now, I mean Julian was a terribly bad influence on Reece, wasn’t he?
51
51 Ruella Dreadful
Goodnight, nice to have met you. Perhaps you’d like to have lunch as well.
52
52 Poo I’m only about 13 at the moment.
Thirt-? Oh, I see. Yes. Well, no, I don’t see. Not at all. It’s far too complicated for me.
53
53 Ruella Is she still in the states.
The states?
54
54 Ruella At university?
No, she’s at Cambridge. Surely you knew?
55
55 Ruella Cambridge? That’s nice.
Don’t think she’s ever been to the states, actually. Very brainy. Quite alarmingly so. Don’t know where she gets it from. Night.
