Timothy continued, “Tinsley, the Labbe family is just as powerful as the Ormonds—if not more. As the eldest son of my family, why would I be after your family’s money? The Labbe family has so much wealth that money is the least of our concerns. In fact, you and I are the perfect match. With our families’ combined strength, we’d be unstoppable.”
