Clarissa, fuming, started to charge forward, but her lawyer quickly held her back. "Ms. Lynch, we should approach this strategically."

Kelly found the whole thing ridiculous.

"She's actually kind of pathetic," Kelly remarked, glancing at Zev. "She wants too much. Her greed has stripped away every last bit of humanity in her."
