The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Foolish Virgin by Thomas Dixon: consciously or unconsciously stand in his way. The man
who had made up his mind to get rich quick, no matter
what the cost to others, would commit murder without
the quiver of an eyelid. If she had ever had a doubt
of this fact, she could have none after her experience
of tonight.
She wondered vaguely of the effects he was
producing on his ignorant old mother. Her words were
too low and indistinct to be heard. But she feared the
worst. The temptation of the gold he was showing her
would be more than she could resist.
