Taking on the Burton Group was a money pit for Joshua. He was spending a fortune just to nick them — winning the battle but wrecking his own treasury in the process.
Because of the poor cost-benefit analysis, few were willing to employ such tactics. Businessmen understood weighing pros and cons. Even if there was no profit to be made, one shouldn't take such a heavy loss.
Abby continued, "Besides, Joshua has poured so much money into this. If we just pull out now, wouldn't all his investment go to waste? He might be rich, but that money didn't just fall from the sky. Do you think it's play money you can just burn for fun?"
"So what if it's wasted?" Foreman retorted, his voice rising. "He owes Stella that much and more! After everything he put her through, even his entire fortune wouldn't be enough to repay her!"
The air went still. Both Stella and Abby frowned at him.
Realizing he'd lost his composure, Foreman cleared his throat and softened his expression and tone.
He sighed. "I just don't want Stella to owe anything to that man. If she needs help, Haynes and I can step in. No matter what, Joshua is the one who hurt her most. We can't just forget the pain once the wound is healed. We can't let him hurt us and then buy his way back into our good graces."
He looked at Abby. "A person can have nothing, but they must have their pride, their dignity."
