It could be worse
I entered the hotel manager's office and sat down.
I had just lost $50 and I felt very upset. 'I left
the money in my room,' I said, 'and it's not there
now.' The manager was sympathetic, but he could do
nothing. 'Everyone's losing money these days,' he
said. He started to complain about this wicked
world but was interrupted by a knock at the door. A
girl came in and put an envelope on his desk. It
contained $50. 'I found this outside this
gentleman's room,' she said. 'Well,' I said to the
manager, 'there is still some honesty in this
world!'

Feel difficult about this sentence "He started to complain about this wicked
world but was interrupted ".
