Could this money be coming from Mack's estranged father, trying to buy his way back into their lives? Or one of Hailey's shady clients? Does it really matter? After all, there are bills to pay.But this mysterious benefactor expects a hefty return on their investment, and the couple soon learns the hard way that the best things in life are not free.
