Love At The Right Price

Chapter 44

Tamara impassively retracted her hand, concealing the raging resentment inside her with a calm expression.

“Mrs. Hardy, I’m afraid that you don’t even deserve to stand here if we were to take our personal relationship into consideration, so it’d be best that we remain in a business relationship.”

The smile on Lily’s face stiffened and she countered, “Tamara, what does that supposed to mean? It has been five years since then. Are you still holding a grudge against us?”

“It has been five years since, yet you are showing your temper here and now? I wonder how much you can do when you are now in the territory of the Hardy Family! I haven’t even settled scores with you about the incident at Springvale Place!”
