Adina was in so much pain that it felt as if she had been shot. She had difficulty breathing.

Earl stared at her and gritted his teeth. Every word carried great anger.
Adina stared at him and chuckled out of extreme rage.â Shouldnât it be my turn to ask you that? Earl Winters, is it very fun to act as your own brother?â
