"Get her location and send it to me! Now!"
"What's wrong?"
Everett didn't have time to explain, "Just do it!" his voice suddenly escalated.
Jonathan jumped at the urgency, "Ah, okay! I'm on it!"
...
"You know, I'm rather curious about how you managed to snag my son."
With things already out in the open, Amanda figured she might as well clear up her own confusion.
Dorothy was undoubtedly attractive, that much was undeniable. But Everett's social circle was a veritable runway of beauties! There were plenty more dazzling and beautiful than her.
"I didn't snag him. He was the one who came after me." Dorothy also spoke the truth.
But Amanda wasn't buying it, "You expect me to believe that you didn't scheme from the get-go to marry my son for his money?"
"For the money, yes."
Amanda let out a derisive snort, "So there you have it! You still deny that you were the one who lured my son in? Maybe he came after you first, but if you weren't intending on having him spend his money on you, none of this would've started!"
Dorothy's gaze fell as she picked up her coffee cup and took a sip.
Bitter with a tang of sour.
It wasn't to her taste.
"I don't have the time to waste on you," Amanda came over without even ordering a drink, clearly planning on making a swift exit. In her eyes, Dorothy wasn't worth lingering over, "So, name your price. As long as it's not outrageous, I’ll consider it money well spent to rid myself of a nuisance."
Money was the only thing that the Lopez family was never lacking.
"I don't want your money."
Dorothy's reply was just as blunt. Her smile was wry, "Haven't you ever considered? If I was after money, I could've just asked Everett directly. Given how much he loves me, would he ever refuse me anything?"
