Chapter 222 Just Don't Disappear

• Ariana's POV:
• Without a word, Stefan slipped the card into my bag, his fingers brushing against the fabric for only a moment before pulling away. "Take it." His voice was low but firm. "My woman shouldn't be counting pennies."
• The tension in his jaw told me he wasn't in the mood for arguments. I didn't fight him on it. Whether I used the money or let it sit untouched, that was my choice. There was no point in making a scene.
