Background
Leslie Ann learned from Thomas the extent of Jonathans financial difficulties and plotted to help him out - her way. She cons her parents out of millions in that pursuit. Should they be skeptical?

Leslie Ann’s nights were interminably long
In her dream, she could feel Jonathan’s heat.
Her traitorous body longed to be joined with his
In love’s dance, again and again they’d repeat.
Her parents lavished her with gifts and bribes;
They bought her new cars, always one of a kind.
She planned, but didn’t want to raise their ire,
Knowing a married man they’d draw the line.
At nineteen, Leslie Ann truly was an exotic beauty
Who learned from her parents the ruses of charade.
She learned early the effect of tears and sniffles,
And on her parents, she could always persuade.
She decided she’d try another tactic this time and
Ordered red roses and dinner for their anniversary.
They were happier than they had been in a while
And laughed out loud as they recounted old memories.
Leslie Ann was all charismatic and solicitous to boot.
“Mom, Dad, you look like you haven’t aged in years,”
She cooed. Her mother beamed and kissed her cheeks.
“We love you, sweetheart; you've been such a dear.”
Between the white bean soup, the entrée and the dessert,
Leslie Ann cautiously mentioned her ample trust accounts.
“Dad, I’ve been studying mergers and acquisitions lately.
I want to learn how to maneuver between large amounts.”
Adoringly, Jason Wall accepted his daughter’s invention,
“I will increase your allowance from one million to two.”
Leslie Ann was so happy she squealed with delight
Thinking how she’d get Jonathan and have money too.
Her parents were happy to see she'd finally settled down,
And listened eagerly as she discussed her investment plan.
She related how she learned stocks and knew about bonds,
And to watch in a few years, her portfolio would expand.
Smiling wickedly, Leslie Ann’s mind moved to high gear,
Thinking in a day she would have the money in hand.
Her heart throbbed and her mind cried Jonathan’s name,
And she knew in her heart, she’d finally get her man.
