VII. The real Love?

Valencia, Billy’s wife, as soon as she heard that her husband had been in a terrible accident she went running down to the airport like a maniac, and because she was so desperate about this crashes into another car and gets poisoned with carbon monoxide and later dies in the hospital.

How can her own instinct of trying to rescue her husband cause her own death? This shows how desperate she was for him, how much she loved him, and even cost her own death loving him this way.

But at the end of the chapter Billy shows a much larger interest towards Montana Wildhack, he starts thinking about what is of her life, and the baby they were going to have together? And is much more interested in her than in his wife who died in theory for his love.

Is this fair? To Valencia? Loving him until she died and Billy secretly loving someone else? Is it fair she died being betrayed and having a hidden secret from his husband?
