Jared looked like he’d been punched in the gut; his face went pale. But lately he’d gotten better at keeping his cool; no matter how much I tried to piss him off, he just stayed calm.

“No need. Just add the dinner money to the transfer,” I said, raising my hand to cut him off.

Jared seemed at a loss for words. Then he said, “Yvonne already talked to your parents and arranged to stay with them for two weeks. I had someone take her to the airport. They’ve probably picked her up by now.”

“If my parents are fine with it, I don’t care,” I replied flatly.

I said, “I’m really not worried, because honestly, I couldn’t care less if you two keep in touch. Your mom seems to
