Back then, at least she had her brothers‘ money to rely on. But now, if she got kicked out, she would be penniless!

Just the thought of going back to those poor, miserable days made her feel like she was drowning in icy water and paralysed.

Stephanie bit her lower lip so hard that it left a deep mark, but she didn’t seem to feel it. She took a deep breath to suppress her rage, then forced a twisted smile, walked up to Milly, and slowly bent down…
