The Life She Stole
Thanks to my previous life at the Fisheries Bureau, lining up buyers was a piece of cake.
Before I could truly got the pearls, I had already locked in deals with a hundred merchants for steady buys.
In under six months, I made a killing as a middleman, raking in 100,000 dollars in no time flat.
The day I went home to pay off my debt, Holly's jaw dropped at the sight of my stylish outfit.
The mild climate where I stayed had worked wonders on my skin, making it smooth and glowy.
Holly gave me a once-over and said, "By the looks of you, you didn't stick with the troops. You talk a good game, but really, you just left your hubby on the front lines while you lived it up."
