Chapter 13: The Farm
Tate's footsteps faded down the hall, and nobody in the room moved.
The chief financial officer cleared his throat and found something interesting on his tablet.
I stood up, and my chair scraped the floor.
"Saturday at noon," I said, to nobody.
"I'm going home."
Winifred looked at me over the head of her cane.
"Child, you have a hearing, a lawyer to find and a pregnancy to protect."
"I have a field my mother left me," I said.
"Nobody is selling it while I'm in Columbus feeling sorry for myself."
Nolan said nothing.
He looked at me, and I remembered what I had asked of him on the stairwell steps.
"Where do you want me?" he asked.
"In the car," I said.
"And when my father talks, you keep your mouth shut."
"Understood."
Winifred's mouth twitched, and she turned her face away.
In the company garage he opened my door, and then he stepped off toward the pillar with his phone.
He kept his back to me.
