He had his own affairs to handle, which the Lancasters could only dream of reaching his level.

If he so desired, the wealthiest families in the city could lose everything, their fortunes vanishing and businesses crumbling into bankruptcy.

But what good would it do to explain this to a woman as arrogant and narrow- minded as Mrs. Lancaster?

"What a scrounger! What does he contribute to us? Nothing but his stomach for free food!"

"He's an embarrassment to Sophia and all of us!"
