Marguerite stepped out of the villa with nothing but the clothes on her back. She spent her last hundred bucks on the cab ride back. Luckily, Miley had just returned home, offering her a temporary place to crash.
Miley had just stepped out of the bath, with her hair wrapped in a white towel. When she opened the door to find Marguerite standing there, looking like a refugee, she was shocked. "What the hell happened to you? Why are you dressed like a ragamuffin, and is that blood on your clothes? Did someone hurt you? Was it Yuna? That makes my blood boil! How could Mr. Winston let her get away with this?!"
Marguerite said weakly, "Miley, can we talk inside? I'm beat."
Miley quickly ushered Marguerite in and fetched her a set of PJs. "Get out of those clothes."
Marguerite changed and emerged from the bedroom to find Miley with a first aid kit, waiting on the couch.
"Miley, is it okay if I crash here for a few days?" She felt a bit awkward asking for another favor.
"Stay as long as you need!"
Miley took out an alcohol swab and started cleaning Marguerite's wounds, then it hit her. "Wait, won't Mr. Winston come looking for you?"
Marguerite gave a bitter smile. "He found out I'm pregnant, so he kicked me out. I guess that's it for us."
Miley's jaw dropped. "What the hell?"
