Back at her home at 47 Red Rose Street, Angel sat in the armchair beside the bay window, counting and recounting today's earnings in her hands, her heart filled with joy.
After selling the "Barbarian" formula and her homemade bullets, she now had as much as 900 pounds in cash. She was about to break into four digits and reach the peak of her former wealth.

If that happened, she would have to activate her backup plan:
