Chapter 20 - Daniel And Emily Face Eviction From Their Mansion
Three weeks later, across town in a cramped, nondescript suburban apartment complex, Daniel sat at a small laminate kitchen table.
He stared at a stack of job rejection letters and final collection notices, realizing how utterly unprepared he was for actual employment.
Emily walked into the cramped kitchen holding a budget grocery bag from the discount supermarket, looking exhausted and defeated.
“We have to budget fifty dollars for groceries this week, Daniel. No more luxury delivery apps,” Emily said flatly, unpacking canned goods.
Daniel nodded slowly, rubbing his temples as the reality of their new working-class existence slowly settled into his bones.

Liam walked out of his small shared bedroom, clutching a budget notebook instead of an expensive tablet, sitting down quietly at the table.
