Not that it ruins the story, but she could certainly have declared it. Of course, just make the creditors a little nastier, and that would't be good enough....
But, failing that, the fact she takes him up on it, when bankruptcy really is an option, shows she might actually like the idea...
I found this story, well-written and fascinating as your work always is, a little unfinished - perhaps that was your intention - and left me aching to know what comes next.
Please say you'll continue - these characters have been too well-crafted to be thrown away so lightly.
More, please, and thank you; 5 *s.

I seem to have made an ass of myself, sdbnnc, in not noticing this was Chapter 1.
Consequently, apart from the parts of my previous post in which I praised your work, please ignore it - sorry ;( !
