*~*~*

Lauren had time to think on her drive over to Waterbury Real Estate. Only a handful of people knew about her trust fund. Nate had just asked about her finances and she’d skirted around the issue. It’s not that she didn’t feel comfortable with Nate, but talking about her trust fund always made her feel…strange. It wasn’t the sort of thing you blabbed about to just anyone. “Oh, by the way, I have almost ten million dollars in a trust fund my grandfather set up for me! Pretty, cool, huh?”

Momma and Daddy had cautioned her from an early age that talking about money was not only “vulgar” (Momma’s word), but could be dangerous as well (Daddy’s precaution).

Tom knew about it, of course. But he’d always insisted they make their own way as a couple. “It’s your money,” he said.

She was grateful for it, naturally. Who wouldn’t be? But it was an awful lot of money. In some ways, it would be easier if it was a lot less. Then she wouldn’t feel this huge responsibility to not blow it. More than likely, though, if she was really going to start up a business, she was going to have to dip into that fund. Either that, or take out a business loan. But a bank would want collateral, and the only real security she could offer was her trust fund, so either way, it was putting the money at risk. Whatever she decided to do, she’d have to think about it long and hard. That was for sure.

She pulled into the strip mall parking lot in front of the real estate company, and had just gotten out of her car when she spotted an all too familiar and unwelcome red Ferrari parked a few spaces down. She walked around to the back of the car. MY OTHER TOY HAS TITS.

Was Ted Ferguson insane? She’d have thought by now he’d have the good sense to take that off his car. How had he gotten away with that bumper sticker without being mauled by a swarm of angry feminists? The urge to key his car, though childish (and probably illegal) was overwhelming. But Lauren wasn’t about to stoop to his juvenile behavior. She glanced around the parking lot. The only other businesses in the strip mall besides the real estate company was a nail salon and a ballroom dance studio. Could Ted be getting a pedicure (not that there was anything wrong with that), or leaning to do the samba? Most likely not. Which meant he was probably inside Waterbury Real Estate.

Her pulse kicked up a notch. She hadn’t seen Ted since that disastrous night at The Harbor House. But she was an adult and more importantly, she could act like one as well. She put on her happy face and opened the door.

A pleasant looking young man in his early twenties sat at the reception desk. “Can I help you?” She recognized the voice from the phone. ANDY in caps was written on his name tag.
