“So what do | do now?” He glanced helplessly at his beloved car, regret already tightening in his throat. “Don’t
tellI'm about to lose my freedom.” If he'd known how ruthless Melvin could be, he would have run the other
way. Regret clung to him like sweat in summer.
“I'll talk to him,” Jessica finally said, out of options. “I'll tell him to stay out of my business.”
“No way!” Jack rejected the idea before she even finished.
Jessica’s brows drew together. “Why not?”
