Chapter 52

The sudden news left Catlin questioning her hearing.

More than two million dollars, earned by Stephaniet

Impossible!

“Lilian saw her studio at Eastview Tower, Tyler pressed.

The air in the ward fell silent.

Catlin’s pupils constricted, shock spreading across her face.

“You sure?”

“Yes, she did make more than two million dollars last year.”

Her breath hitched.

More than two million dollars–how?

How did she do it?

“No wonder our financial threats failed. It turned out she…..

More than two million dollars. How on earth did she make it?

“You can’t let her keep that studio.

Catlin was furious.

The thought of Stephanie earning that much money without her knowing ignited her fury.

Tyler nodded. “Don’t worry, it’s already been taken care of.”

Soon, she’d crawl back to the Harts.

“How’d she pull this off?” Catlin seethed.
