Nice one George

Mildred, the church gossip and self-appointed monitor of the Church's morals, kept sticking her nose in to other people's business. Several members did not approve of her extra curricular activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.

She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old van parked in front of the small town's only bar one afternoon. She emphatically told George and several others that everyone seeing it there would know what he was doing.

George, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, nor deny. He said nothing. Later that evening, George quietly parked his van in front of Mildred's house
Spoiler:
... walked home....and left it there all night.
