By the time Caryn had tidied her bedroom and gathered some clothes, Andrew had wrapped the personal items she’d tossed on the sofa and placed them in cloth shopping bags. He glanced at her as she set her overnight bag near the door. “Did you get what you wanted from your room?”

She shook her head with a bitter laugh. “Can we just get out of here for a while? If I stay here much longer, I might start throwing things over the balcony at the door.”

“Thanks for the warning.” Andrew eyed the open space above his head. “Got your textbooks?”

Caryn grabbed her backpack and shoved her texts, notebooks, iPad, and laptop inside, then pulled her flash drive from her desktop and slipped it into her pocket. Andrew took the backpack and nodded toward the cloth shopping bags.

“If you grab those, I’ll get your suitcase. I assume you have an extra key to lock the door?”

She reached into her pocket and handed it to him. “Hang on to it. It’s the only duplicate I have.” She reached for her coat, turning toward Andrew with the hint of a smile crossing her face. “Would hate to have to change all the locks.”

He laughed softly and nodded toward the door. “Let’s get out of here before you get any more ideas.”

They stowed everything in the trunk, then Andrew opened the passenger door, seeing Stevens’ “proposal” as Caryn picked it up before sliding into the seat. “Just toss that in the back seat, Cary.”

By the time he’d joined her in the car, she held the bound file toward him. “I recognize the cover. From my dad?”

Andrew sighed as he started the car. “It’s nothing important. I’m shredding it when I get home.”

“So, Dad gives you ‘this’ while my mom eases her conscience by bringing me money. What did he offer you?”

“Nothing that interests me.” He reached for the file and dropped it on the floor behind his seat.

“How much?”

Andrew glanced at her. “Doesn’t matter, Caryn. I told him I’m not interested.”

“The answer to any problem—buy the outcome he wants. I can’t believe he’d do that to you. I’m sorry you’re in the middle of this.”

“I’m not. This time your father can’t bully, intimidate or buy what he wants.”
