Leanna asked, "Are you sure it happened half a month ago?"

"How much did you buy this for?"

"I-I don't remember."

The woman answered, "You're still going to have to pay for wasting my time and energy. Just add it all up. Makes things easier for us."

"How much would you want?"

"Not much. Three, four thousand or so."

Leanna chuckled. "Three, four thousand?"
