Elio watched Colton’s furious exit, shaking his head That girl sure was slick- not only did she take Colton for all he was worth, but she also got him to sort out the engagement party mess Even though she’s not famous yet, this whole thing needed to be kept on the downlow If someone with an axe to grind spills the beans, she’s in hot water

Farrah was taken aback Colton might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he s hell–bent on his decisions When he says he won’t eat, he won’t eat! Last time, she promised to take him to Disneyland and didn’t, he went on a hunger strike that nearly did him in!
Even though Colton’s not all there, Farrah cant just let him starve So, she whipped out her phone and gave Sandra a ring.

“It’s not Astrid’s fault, it’s Colton’s decision, Farrah intervened. “Don’t take it out on Astrid. As for your money, I can give you more time to repay.”
