"Why?!" Renee Sinclair's voice was no different from a roar. "Felix Preston is my life! I'll die without him! But you're different! You don't have a system or a mission. You could leave Felix Preston and find a much better man, so why do you insist on clinging to him?"
Sonia Quincy chuckled and answered calmly, "In my heart, Felix Preston is the best. I could never be with another man."
"Sonia Quincy!" Renee Sinclair sounded like she was crying. "I'm begging you, please, just let me have Felix Preston. I really can't live without him!"
"No." Sonia's voice was soft, but her tone was unyieldingly firm.
Renee Sinclair completely broke down. "Will you help me if I get on my knees and beg? I'll do it! I'll kneel and beg you if you'll just help me!"
"You'd be saving my life. Think of it as accumulating good karma for the baby in your belly. It would also be a way to repay me for the trouble I helped you solve."
