Chapter 84

“Yes, you did,” May said, totally unfazed.

Rebecca asked, “Then why send me to collect Mom’s money?”

May said through gritted teeth, “Keep talking like I’m royalty and I’ll hop a flight just to swat you.”

Rebecca thought, ‘Yep. Same May.’ She said, “Alright, just go ahead.”

“That’s better,” May said, sounding pleased. She rolled her suitcase out of the airport and said, “Your mom doesn’t even bat an eye at the Jensen Group’s money.”

Rebecca was totally confused, honestly wondering if May had lost her mind. She asked, “Are you sure you’re not crazy or something?”

“Get lost,” May shot back, never one to hold back when she was roasting someone. She asked, “Didn’t Amelia ever mention this to you?”

Rebecca was completely lost. She replied, “I seriously have no clue what you’re talking about.”

May said, “Give me half an hour, and I’ll explain everything. Let me find a quiet spot first.”

Rebecca was sure May was messing with her on purpose.

Half an hour later, May checked into a fancy hotel. After putting her luggage down, she walked up to the floor–to–ceiling window and video–called Rebecca. No greetings, no small talk–she dove straight back into their unfinished business.

She asked, “So you have no idea Amelia’s got money sitting around?”

“No,” Rebecca said, shaking her head.


May said, “She does. Seriously, at this point, she’s so broke all she’s got left is money.”

Rebecca assumed that May was messing with her right now.

“What’s that look supposed to mean?” May teased, her brows arched, face full of sass as she eyed Rebecca through the screen.

“I honestly have no clue what to say,” Rebecca replied, not believing a word of it.

May looked like she was about to spill some real secrets, but remembering how Amelia had cut off every connection to her past, she just shrugged and said, “It’s all her own money–private funds.

“At the very least, she’s got hundreds of millions to her name, maybe way more. Can’t say for sure.”

Rebecca looked outright skeptical.
