Chapter 465: Just Another Jenkins

Christopher looked up as I entered, his curious expression turning sullen and unwelcoming, telling me everything I needed to know before I could even open my mouth.

"I know why you're here, Miss Fleming," he said, looking down instantly, bitterness in his voice. "I have zero influence over my father, so asking me to do anything about the assault charge is a waste of time." He met my eyes again, then, chest puffing out under his golf shirt, lips a tight line of disapproval. "Not to mention the fact your husband should have controlled his temper. Now, if you don't mind, I have work to do and zero patience with the Fleming family, unlike the rest of this sad little town."

Wow. Okay then. He turned his back on me, sat down at a computer and put on headphones, proceeding to ignore me completely.
