"Are you okay?"

Mixed emotions brewed within Josie. "I didn't do, so I'm fine."

Claudia turned around to face Ava directly. Her first words were, "Young lady, I've met you before."

"Two years ago, I gave you a large sum of money in my son's condominium and asked you to leave him. You accepted the money and agreed to my terms. Yet, you stayed by his side and demanded more money by using pregnancy as an excuse."

"If it weren't for me insisting that you get an amniocentesis, we would never have known that the child you carried wasn't my son's." Following that single statement, the crowd plunged into an uproar. Whoa! A honey trap!
