“No, not on your life.Something doesn’t add up.Tell Whizz to look for Andrew.You knowall the details.”

Before they signed the papers, Laceywanted to talk with Daisy to make sure the young girl was happywith it.
“Are you all right?”Whizzasked.
“I am.”Lacey smiled,releasing a sigh.“Just nervous.”
Sally leaned forward, gripping hershoulder.“She’s going to love you.”
Taking hold of Sally’s hand, Lacey smiledat her.“Are you sure you’re okay with this?I don’t want you tothink we’re pushing you aside.”
“You’re not sending meback, and I’m not going to be selfish demanding that you can’t helpanother person like me.Daisy’s young, but she need us.I can’twait to be a big sister.”
“We’re going to be onewicked family,” Whizz said.
“You’ll have to read to her, andwe’re so going to have to go shopping,” Sally said.
“What the fuck?You justwant an excuse to spend my money.”Whizz cursed, shaking hishead.
Sally giggled.“You love us for it, andhonestly, what else are you going to spend your money on?Laptops,tablets, phones?”
“I run abusiness.”
“You’re a nerd.A totalnerd.”

“A total nerd who can buyyou exactly what you want.”
