“She knows everything, and she doesn't care; she said we have to pay our own way from now on,” Daniel admitted defeat.

Emily crossed her arms, her face contorting into an ugly mask of rage and disbelief.

“This is all because of that stupid dinner last night! You should have defended me when she lectured Liam!” Emily blamed.
