"Aunt Mae, watch what you're saying. How is she a mess of a woman?" Caroline's face darkened, clearly annoyed by Mae's hostility. She stepped forward smoothly, pulling Eliza behind her. "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.

Mae's meticulously made-up face now seemed stiff. She stood there awkwardly, her lips parted as if she wanted to argue back but couldn't find the right words. "You, you..." It was a clear jab about the time Casper was drugged.
