"They say getting involved with the wealthy elite is like diving into deep waters. Seems like it's true."

Eliza turned over, slowly lifting her slightly swollen eyelids. Indeed, she must have been lucky. She was still alive. Casper hadn't taken her life; he was probably saving her for another round of drawing blood.

How could she save his grandfather if she were dead? She understood Casper's reasoning. Eliza had been in the hospital for ten days and during that time, Casper hadn't visited her once.

It was his secretary, however, who showed up when she was about to be discharged.

"Your discharge papers are ready." Faithe placed a stack of documents in front of Eliza, glancing at her briefly. Eliza didn't say a word. So, Faithe repeated, "I'm talking to you. Make sure you keep these documents safe." "Faithe, don't people usually use titles when speaking to each other?"
