Mrs. Bonner made the audio recording of a conversation she had with Zoe Chase on New Year's Day 2024.
Participants:
- Dani Bonner
- Zoe Chase
Zoe Chase: […] Oh, I was just kidding.
Dani Bonner: You have no idea how much that hurt. Sometimes the things you say…
Zoe Chase: You know I don't mean them.
Dani Bonner: Not always. I don't always know.
Zoe Chase: Dani, what can I say to convince you?
Dani Bonner: Never mind. Let's just drop it. It's a new year, time for resolutions…
Zoe Chase: I'm sorry.
Dani Bonner: I know.
Zoe Chase: I've already apologized a hundred times. Will a hundred and one do the trick?
Dani Bonner: It's okay. Forget it. Want some champagne?
Zoe Chase: Just to prove I mean it, how about this…
Dani Bonner: You don't have to prove—
Zoe Chase: I, Zoe Chase, being of sound mind and body—
Dani Bonner: Zoe…
Zoe Chase: do hereby bequeath all my material and worldly goods to—
Dani Bonner: Zoe!
Zoe Chase: my dearest and best friend, Danielle Brady Bonner, including but not limited to my jewelry, automobile, literary works and the rights to said works, secret recipes, my red sling-back pumps, and my leather jacket. Does that prove we're still best friends?
Dani Bonner: Zoe, do you mean it?
Zoe Chase: Of course I mean it.
