She took a cab back to their place-empty, quiet as a graveyard. In her room, she dragged an old, beat-up suitcase from the corner and stuffed it with everything she’d brought from the orphanage.
Under her bed, she found a bank card.
One grand sat on that card, a goodbye gift from some guy named “Mr. Quinn” when she left the orphanage. She’d told him she didn’t need his help, but he never asked for it back. Now, that money was her way out.
Aubree swapped her Wilson clothes for an old orphanage outfit. Good thing years of barely eating kept her small enough to fit.
With a bitter chuckle, she grabbed her suitcase and headed out, running smack into Wendy Carter, the housekeeper.
Wendy’s gut twisted. “That suitcase? Aubree is bolting?’
ID and luggage in hand, Aubree caught a bus to Rithol City’s rough edges. The city was pricey as hell-only the sketchy suburbs had rentals she could afford. Three hundred bucks got her a tiny room.

Daxton smirked, arms crossed. “Oh, please. First, she ‘cuts us off,’ now she’s pulling this runaway stunt? Thinks we’ll beg her to come back? Lame. Bet she’s back in three days, crying.”
“She’ll regret this,” Ronald snapped. “When she drags her sorry butt back, I’ll deal with her.”
Carmen played sweet, batting her eyes. “Should we look for her? What if she’s in trouble?”
