Rese knew the project really did have ample resources at their disposal and could truly make a significant impact–polnitially more valuable than it was now.

“You… you’re far too arrogant, Remember, this is the Flynn family!” Everly retorted, her voice laced with a mix of anger and desperation.
Everly couldn’t stand Reese’s megance. The way Reese gazed at her with utter contempt was unbearable. She was accomplished in her own right–why should she be looked down upon?
