Lydia’s lips tightened, and her expression turned unreadable. "Mind your own business, Erica," she said curtly. "Don’t mess with my matters."
Erica’s eyes sparkled with mischief. "You are so secretive," she said, stepping closer. "But I’m your daughter. Don’t you think I should know about the big moves you’re making?"
