Ewan shook his head. “I’m just happy common sense prevailed and he had me released. I suspect your mother had something to do with that. She’s always had a soft spot for me.

He doesn’t like to be made a fool of, and you dropping out of Harvard and running away from home does just that.”

Micah looked helplessly at Jefferson. “What do I do?”
