"Lynn, I'm a little tired today. Can we talk tomorrow?"
"…Okay. You should get some rest." Lynn Thorne hung up reluctantly, clearly having much more she wanted to say.
Georgia Thorne wasn't in a good state of mind. Listening would only make her feel worse. She just wanted to burrow under the covers and sleep it all away.
The next day, Georgia Thorne was still asleep when she was woken by a POUNDING on the door.
Georgia Thorne opened the door, and Nancy Hughes rushed in, phone in hand. "Georgia, I think your family's company is going bankrupt!"
Georgia Thorne already had a headache, and hearing Nancy Hughes's words only made it worse.
Yet she didn't seem agitated at all. With a cool expression, she replied, "I know."
Bankruptcy was no small matter, yet she brushed it off so simply.
Nancy Hughes suddenly recalled Georgia Thorne leaving yesterday. 'She must have found out then.'
"I saw on the news that your family's collapse was sudden. What happened?"
