Chris gunned the engine, rage building inside him.

Stephanie shot a quick glance at the luxury mall across the street. She pulled out her phone, and dialed Jennifer.

“The meeting’s pushed back two hours,” she said, her voice tight with purpose.

Jennifer picked up instantly. “Got it.”

After hanging up, Jennifer was off, spreading the words.

Stephanie wasted no time. She stormed into the mall, no hesitation, no second thoughts.

For the next two hours, she treated herself to everything she could find–jewelry, cosmetics, designer bags–anything that screamed expensive.

He didn’t even bother looking at the screen, but every time, it was the same–thousands of dollars spent.

He let out a sharp laugh, bitter and scornful. “She said she didn’t need money? Yeah, right.”

It was obvious what was going on. Stephanie had barely gotten her card back and she was already on a full–on shopping

spree.

Chris shook his head, a bitter smile playing at the corners of his mouth. She always acted like she was above it all, but the second money was involved, all that pride went out the window.
