Aria Morgan quickly grabbed Elijah Moore's arm. "Elijah, let me pay for it. As you already know, my sister was just kicked out of the house by our mother. From where would she get the money to pay for the dress?"
"Aria, why should you pay for what she has done? Don't defend her. She's not worth it."
All of a sudden, Hallie Morgan burst into laughter. She watched their intimate interaction and said scornfully to Elijah Moore: "And what kind of person am I? You think you've got the right to slur me? Is it because we were together? Could be a seamless transition, or maybe you've been playing both sides all along. Flirted with me, then turned to Aria? Ha! Sleeping your way through the two sisters? I never realized you were such a player."
Elijah Moore's face darkened. His lips were trembling, visibly upset. Seeing the crew eagerly listening in, eyes glued on the spectacle, he pointed at Hallie Morgan.
"Enough!"
