Chapter 15
I had on a black crop top–short, showing a sliver of my waist–paired with loose beige pants. Standing at five–foot–six, I had a slim, tall frame, and my brown hair made me look much more gorgeous.
“Mom, what’re you wearing? It’s cute!” Yvonne’s eyes went wide. She’d never seen me dressed like this.
Jared’s deep–set eyes flickered with surprise.
I flipped my wavy hair and stepped toward them. “Let’s go, Yvonne. I’m gonna be late for dinner.”
Jared ruffled Yvonne’s hair, his voice soft. “Listen to Mom, okay? Don’t give her a hard time.”
Yvonne pouted, grumbling. “I know. You say that every day–it’s annoying.”
Jared looked at her adoringly. Then he turned to me and gave me a thorough once–over. “Who are you having dinner with?”
“My violin teacher and some classmates,” I replied.
His brows pulled tight. “Don’t mess with strangers. Watch out for creeps.”
I laughed. “Meeting new people is fun for me.”
Before he could say more, I shut the car door and pulled away. In the rearview mirror, I saw him still standing there, watching me leave.
Yvonne pulled out her game console, firing it up. “Mom, why didn’t you come bake with me yesterday?”
She was basically calling me a bad mom. But I almost smirked–Tracy was probably thrilled for the chance. Honestly, she should thank me.
