Chapter 43 Understanding the Cost of Living

Nelson was silent for a moment. Just as Callie realized she might have crossed a line, he grabbed her wrist again, "Come with me." "Hey!"

Callie covered her face and called out softly, "Why are you dragging me home? It's the weekend! I have plans!" Nelson's Porsche was parked right outside the mall. He opened the door, pushed Callie in, got in himself, buckled up, all in one swift motion. "Sit tight." After the two words, he started the car.
