Ernest's eyebrow arched in cold dismissal. “Well then...”
As the words left his mouth, he retreated into the sanctuary of his domain. “Your presence is no longer required.”
The massive door crashed shut mere inches from her face, the sound reverberating through her very bones.
Elissa stood frozen on the doorstep, unable to speak, her mind struggling to comprehend the brutal swiftness

confided his frustrations about his father’s impatience to Elissa, who listened sympathetically.
Elissa’s eyelids fluttered shut as a wave of anguish swept over her. With trembling hands, she took out her phone
