"If Casper brought her home and our family accepts her, that's all that matters. We don't need your approval." Mae was momentarily speechless, her eyes widened in disbelief that Caroline would stand up for a stranger like that.

Her face flushed with anger. "Caroline, have you lost your mind? She's a gold-digger, after Casper's money. Don't let her fool you."

"Going after Casper's money is still better than going after his body," Caroline retorted with a grimace, unwilling to drag out the conversation. She took Eliza and walked away.
