Elmer sneered. "So you don't have to use your son as an excuse. You just want to go back because you haven't lived enough. You hid that money for the rest of your life, but you didn't have the chance to enjoy it when you were old. You want to go back and enjoy it before you're willing to leave."

Amelia understood. She sorted out her logic bit by bit. "Because you still have a lot of money that you haven't used up, you don't want to leave and don't visit your son in his dreams. It's because you want to come back and spend that money yourself, so… you want to snatch my mother's body, right?"
