Strangely, Jessica hadn’t appeared since their return.

Geoffrey listened silently, his lips curled into a cold sneer, waiting to see how far their greed would stretch.

Nicholas, ever the old fox, saw right through them: “Since you offered to help Geoff, you should ask him directly,”

Edward choked, flushing with embarrassment.

Kathleen, knowing Nicholas wouldn’t yield easily, shot their son Willie a meaningful glance.
