“Alyssa, I’m at a total loss here! I didn’t come back just to spend more time with Balfour, but for my own future, too. After years of living abroad all by myself, I know that place isn’t really home. Only here in this city can I find where I belong. Alyssa, are you really going to take away that right?”

But I made my stance crystal clear: any debt to your family can be settled any which way you want, except tying it to Balfour’s marriage. You agreed to that, remember? So why the change of heart now? For years, I’ve turned a blind eye to Balfour’s annual trips abroad, just to avoid family drama. Remember, it was your sister who was his benefactor, not you. Don’t try to cash in on that gratitude. I don’t appreciate it, and neither does Balfour.”
