Barbara Taylor Bradford Quote
Mary never made it to the board meeting. Cunning Elizabeth simply arranged for her cousin's tennis instructor to delay her for an hour or two. The man was evidently a superb athlete, though it was entirely Mary's fault that she fell asleep afterwards. Elizabeth took control of the company that very afternoon, by a vote of six to one, while a sated Mary slept. And the silly girl never knew what hit her.
