âHurry up, Riley! Why the hell are you so slow?â
Marleyâs tone was rude, as though she was talking to a slave.
Stunned, I asked worriedly, âRiley, whatâs Marley doing there? Is she making things difficult for you?â
Riley didnât give me a direct answer.
Instead, she just said, âIâm sorry, but Iâm busy right now.
You donât have to come in today.
â Then she hung up on me hurriedly.
My expression darkened.
Needless to say, Marley mustâve been stirring up trouble for Riley again.
Yesterday, Riley had offended Marley in front of everyone at the police station.
Now that Marley was free, how could she let Riley get away with it?
Damn it! This was all my fault.
Marley wouldnât have bothered Riley if it werenât for me.
âDebra, whatâs wrong?â Sensing the change in my attitude, Caleb looked at me with concern.
âWhatâs with the Long face?â
His words roused my anger.
How dare he ask me such a question?

I couldnât help but explode at him.
âThis is all your fault, Caleb! If you hadnât insisted on bailing out Marley, this crazy woman wouldnât have been able to make trouble for us for at least a few days.
Now,
Marleyâs bullying Riley again.
Are you satisfied yet?â
Caleb was clearly taken aback by my words
âWhat? Debra, I didnât bail Marley out,â he explained helplessly.
âJust think about it.
Bailing her out does me no good!â
I rolled my eyes, refusing to listen to his Lame excuses.
I saw Carlos bail for Marley with my own eyes, didnât I? That was proof enough.
I turned my head and didnât want to Look at him anymore.
âEnough with the bullshit and take me to Rileyâs.
I have to help her.
â
âFine.
â
Caleb gave up explaining to me and drove to the location I gave him
Riley and Marley were shopping in a department store.
Riley had even squatted down to fetch the pair of shoes Marley wanted.
And Marley took this as an opportunity to kick Riley down.
