Healy was in cahoots with Jaden.
Previously, she had incurred Jadenâs wrath.
They didnât have the courage to seek retribution against Matthew, so they resorted to threatening her about raising the rent.
Realizing she was cornered, she suppressed her rage.
âThe deadline isnât until next week.

Healy huffed, âThis is my property, and I say youâll pay today!â

Now.
Or Iâll see to it you donât have a roof over your head.

No longer the casual joker he usually was, Nevilleâs visage was steely and resolute.
Healy clutched his chest, struggling to his feet.
Without a word, he cast a malevolent look at Miley and ran away as fast as he could.
Stella burst through the door, immediately locking eyes with a scowling Healy.
Healy huffed, clutching his chest as he left.
