Cassandra returned to the guest house, disappointment weighing her down. She had lost a great job she got within a day. She knew she wasn't emotionally ready to work but she had to. As she walked in the manager, intercepted her. "Miss, we need to discuss changes in our pricing. Starting next week, room rates increase by 20%." Cassandra nodded, concern all over her face.

I couldn't help it," Claus said. Mr. Jake's expression remained neutral. "Explain, Claus." Claus leaned in. "That woman's trouble. She'll bring ruin to your company." Mr. Jake raised an eyebrow.
