Joy gently patted Peyton's back, trying to calm her down. "Ms. Allison, her brother is in the hospital right now. It's definitely a work injury, but the factory hasn't given him any compensation. His boss just handed him two months' salary and let him go. Now London's been laid off, and there's no sign of any disability or medical benefits."

"Yes, yes!" Peyton nodded eagerly, "I'll take you there."
