Chapter 12

Tristan manufactured a smile then turned his attention to his mother. "How was the flight home?"

"It was tiresome, as usual." She released his hand and gave him a thankful nod. "How is school going, did your first day go well?"

Tristan chuckled. "School started six weeks ago, mother."

Melanie laughed. "I'm just teasing sweetheart. Your teachers speak very highly of you. Mr. Eggleston says you have one of the highest averages in the school. I am very proud of you, Tristan."

"Why on earth we allow you to go to that public school is still a mystery to me," Leslie grunted with disdain. "You could have chosen any private school in the entire U.S. and would have been accepted."
