A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 764

Tanya's voice faltered.

Realizing this had devolved into a classic 'take the money and leave' scenario, Starla pressed, "How much did they give you?"

"A hundred."

"A hundred thousand?"

"No. A hundred. A single hundred-dollar bill."

"What?" Starla asked, stunned. "A hundred dollars? Is this some kind of joke?"

"A hundred bucks. Hilarious, right? I was pretty shocked myself. Apparently, that's exactly what I'm worth."

Tanya had heard so many stories about families throwing millions to get rid of unwanted girlfriends. Being dismissed with a crumpled piece of cash was jarring. But after the initial shock wore off, the message was crystal clear: the Lynn family was purposefully humiliating her.

Starla's breathing grew heavy. "They're degrading you."

"Yeah. I know. I'd have to be brain-dead not to realize that."

"Does Darian know?" Starla asked. The Lynn family was crossing a major line, but based on her previous impression of them, this ruthless tactic tracked perfectly with their style.

"I didn't tell him."
