Christmas Eve and a Date

The Christmas break in America was usually two weeks long, and ran from 22 December to 5 January in the new year.

Many people also took annual leave during this time, which meant that they got a one-month holiday.

In the end, Catherine said that she would consider it. Even if they did visit L.A., they would celebrate Christmas at home first.

Luke said that it was fine, and declared that he would pay for their trip.

Robert wasn't happy. "You think you're rich now, boy?"

Luke gloated. "Haha, I just received a two thousand-dollar reward for cracking a case. How does that sound?"

Robert was defeated. He didn't know what to say.

Shackelford was too small a town. There was barely any reward money here, unless he ran into drug dealers.

"Fine, you can pay for our trip." Robert gnashed his teeth and gave the phone to Catherine.
