August's POV
I had just dropped Ellena off at her uncle's house. We had finished attending a party hosted by one of my company's associates this evening. Despite encountering some minor issues tonight, I managed to handle them well. John and his girlfriend truly deserve to be punished for their outrageous behavior and words.
"Is it time to punish them so they won't bother her again? Or should I teach them a lesson that will make them think twice before acting out?" So many ideas came to mind for making John realize his current position.
Being alone in the car made me think about Ellena's expressions when we talked during the ride. Ellena seemed so innocent with her questions about my wealth. Not only that, she appeared genuinely surprised when I gave her permission to spend my money. Such a unique and amusing woman, Ellena made me smile as I recalled her reactions.
