Susan’s confidence disappeared in an instant.

Whenever Lillian went out with her so–called friends, the represented the Reed family. Of course, I would never let her leave the house wearing cheap <b>clothes</b>.
“Why are <b>you </bparing yourself to her? You’re not even in the <b>same </b>social circle. What’s the point of wasting money like <b>that</b>?”
A slight smile <b>yed </b>on Ste’s lips.
You see? When it came to me it was always considered a waste.
“Sure, I waste. I like wasting money. Happy now?<b>” </b>
Susan snapped, “Not enough money? Fine, I’ll raise it back to what it was 14000 dors a month. Good enough?”
She soundedpletely fed up, clearly not wanting to argue anymore.
Before Ste could speak, Susan interrupted again. It’s settled. I’ll call the bank right now and open up the 14000 limit for you. But there’s something I need you to do.”
Ste replied, “So there’s a catch”
I was used to these things by now.
But the moment I heard Susan mention conditions, I didn’t even have to think; it was clearly for Lillian again.
Susan snapped, “Don’t give me that attitude. You are bringing Rianne <b>back</b>. And you <b>know</b>, Dr. Eddie, don’t you?”
Ste frowned slightly. “<b>Eddie </b>McKenzie?”
“You both went to the Parker family banquet. Don’t pretend you don’t know him.”
Susan’s tone was sharp and impatient.
Ste let <b>out </b>a deepugh. “Wow, you really know every detail.”

Every sentence was driven by one motive—Lillian Reed
Ste couldn’t help but cluck her tongue. “Only 14000 dors? And you want to buy Lillian’s life with that? Is that what she’s worth to you<b>?</b><b>” </b>
As <b>soon </b>as those words left her lips, Susan on the other end of the line nearly exploded.
“From 2700 to 14000 dors, and you still say it’s not enough? What exactly do you want?”
In <b>Susan’s </b>eyes.
<b>14000 </b>dors <b>wasn’t </b><b>a </b>small amount, not for someone like Ste, who came from poverty.
She never wanted to tell us what her adoptive family was like, wasn’t that just because they were too poor?
Even though she is her biological daughter, Susan couldn’t help but feel that Ste was too fake.
These people raised her, and yet she looked down on them?

Back at the hospital, Susan was furious after Ste hung up on her again. Her head was spinning with rage. She called back only to find she’d been blocked.

Susan felt the had never been so angry in her life. But now, with <b>Ste</b><b>, </b>she was really losing it.

He said he was fine but inside he was burning with anger
Last night Susan had told me about Eddie. Now my head hurdi just thinking about it. Why were all these <b>doctors </b>smehom connected Ste?
Wisn’t that just a little too condemns
“She didn’t consent?” he asked.
Susan gritted her teeth. “Agree to whur? She’s jun bell–bent on going against Lillian.”
