“If everything looks fine, please sign.” Robin took out the rest of the forms for Sierra. “I’ll handle all the transfers for you.”
Sierra took them and looked them over. Once she was sure everything was in order, she signed without hesitation. She didn’t want to argue with John about any of it anymore. If he wanted to give it to her, fine. She would transfer everything to Tommy in the end, anyway.
“Ms. Bell.” Robin only spoke after she finished signing.
Sierra looked up at him. “Yes.”

Seeing Sierra sitting there in silence with a neutral expression on her face, Anna sat down and asked with concern, “What did Robin say to you? Why do you look so unhappy?”
“Mom.” Sierra wasn’t interested in anything right now.
Anna’s voice stayed gentle. “Yes?”
