Instead of becoming angry, Tia’s grandfather burst into laughter. He was amazed and proud of her talent. He admitted that he had worried Tia was too young and inexperienced to become the future head of the Lombardi family, but now he realized she was already an outstanding business leader. Shannanet gently asked whether handling both the Pellet Company and the Lombardi family would be difficult, but Tia answered that she did not want to give up either one. She also gave credit to Clerivan and Violet for helping build the company. The conversation then turned toward the Angenas family. Tia explained that she still had debts to collect from them. Clerivan calculated that the Angenas family owed more than 8,000 gold after including interest and penalties. Tia also wanted compensation for the destruction of the Pellet Company building and Clerivan’s mansion. She promised to reward Clerivan and Violet properly for everything they had suffered. Her grandfather happily praised her determination and said she truly acted like his granddaughter.
