The window was slightly ajat at the end of the corridor, letting in a chill breeze that swept through and set Lily's long hair dancing wildly.

She stuffed her hands into the pockets of her down jacket, pulling it tighter around her as she walked briskly forward.

"Don't worry. Dad will sell the house when I divorce Xavier. Hayden's medical expenses will be covered."

Hazel grabbed berjacket. "Don't even think about returning to the Joyner residence if you go through with the divorce! Your father will ruin the family legacy built over decades.

It was slightly tighter on her when she bought it.
