    Alora’s insults made Susie’s face turn green, and she snapped at Alora angrily, “How could you insult me like that, Alora? I’m an attendant here at East Emperor, yes, but I’m earning my money with my own hands and my own sweat. The money I earn is clean!“I earned every cent with my own sweat and blood, unlike Jane who sold her dignity for hers.

She spoke, panicked and painfully, “I’ll sing right now, Mr. Stewart.”The time ticked past, a
