“Ms. Domont, please calm down. Madam Domont only wanted to save you money–that’s why she let Mr. Domont bring her home. Nobody made her do anything,” Sue said, trying to soothe Kaia.

His face turned purple. “Kaia Domont, do you even know what you’re doing right now?”

Kaia raised her chin high. “Oh, I know exactly what I’m doing. Waking up some heartless people who think they can control me.”

Tobias bolted upright, rage blinding him. He stormed over, ready to slap her.
