Chapter 984

Whitney couldn't believe it-neither she nor Parker could get rid of this destitute, malevolent woman.

"It's like they say, the barefoot aren't afraid of those with shoes. Right now, Elaine is acting all high and mighty because she's got nothing to lose," she said with a chilling tone, her frustration evident as she squinted her eyes menacingly. "You better stay out of this for now. Ashton's being stubborn as a mule, and he might just pick a fight with you. I'm off to the hospital."
