“Look at that expensive stuff. Ashlyn must be rich now!” Horace’s rude voice rang out as he stared at Susan viciously.

Susan cowered back in fear. “Lucas was the one who changed them.”

“Who’s Lucas? Are you lying to me? I don’t see any Lucas here!” Horace demanded angrily. “I don’t care. Get two million from Ashlyn. She’s a famous doctor who gets paid a lot by those wealthy men! She must be rich!”
