Jessie, just like Polly, couldn't see beyond the facts and the disturbing connection to Jack Wilson hung in front of them both. This wife would do anything to stay, she would cheat, steal and borrow. And they ultimately result in murder, caused by Jack due to his selfish ways. He would do anything and everything to get what he wanted. Simmie describes it including letters that Jack had written to Jessie and that Jessie had written to Jack. Throughout the ordeal, showing the lies and not believing it, he had said that anyone else would have noticed right away. He was a mass manipulator and a liar to anyone who would listen. “Polly confronted Jack about the letter, asking him how Jessie could think they were going to get married. He sat down on the bed while Jack stood by the door, as if he couldn't wait to leave. [I don't know how Jessie got this idea. I tried to break up with her but I hated hurting her…]” (p.60). This quote is just a small example of what Simmie wrote to show us Jack Wilson's personality. How he manipulated the two women, who thought they couldn't do anything
