“Yes, Audrey helped Blake,” Rebecca jumped in. “But hasn’t our family paid her back? Look at the life she had before versus after joining the Parker family. Isn’t that enough? What gives her the right to Parker assets?”

“How dare you!” William shouted at Rebecca. “You think she married into our family for money?”
