"You can't marry her Keith, she's not from a prestigious or renowned background and it'll ruin our family lineage!" An angry outburst from Keith's Father leaves Annalise startled and flushed in the corridor.
Fed up and hurt she walks into the room, a bit apologetic for interrupting their conversation, she takes a deep breath before turning to George Anders, Keith's father.
"With all due respect sir, I'd let you know that all my life I've worked hard to get to where I am at the moment. Regardless of the fact that my parents died when I was young, I didn't let that stop me, I waited tables, even ran errands just to make sure I finished my education and made a life for myself, one my parents would be proud of, one that doesn't involve hardship or suffering. So I will not let you stand here and belittle all my achievements and hard work. Yes, I might not be from a 'prestigious or Renowned family or of high social class' or heck I might not even be a billionaire yet but my money is very long too. I'm proud of myself and the woman I've become and that's enough for me. So if you'd excuse me I'd like to go and be with my family now, thanks for having me" She walks out of the room sassily never looking back.
