I am ✨️extremely torn✨️
This story was incredible and well written and engaging. BUT, and it's a huge but, Thomas was the absolute worst. He was straight up demeaning, belittling, a giant piss baby and plain abusive. He would call Sylvie names to her face accuse her of being a con woman who's selfishly out to steal thousands out of people, then kiss her a second later. I wantes to shut it off numerous times because I could not stand the thought of continuing to listen to him. Worst, least objective journalist to exist. He had a narrative and nothing she did was ever going to change his mind so why even pretend to be interested in being proven wrong? The fact that she let him treat her any fucking way he wanted and then always kissed him back sent me over the goddamm edge. Why? Why did this mystery have to be good that it kept me going?
