She had been quite warm toward him yesterday, but today she was giving him the cold shoulder.
Anne Sutton looked at Nathan Fawcett and said, "I have something to ask you."
"Just say it."
"Then you have to promise you won't lie to me."
Nathan Fawcett: "..."
'How could he possibly promise that?'
Anne Sutton looked at the man. "I don't know why, but I always feel like you're lying to me."
Everything this man did struck Anne Sutton as strange.
But she couldn't quite put her finger on what was so strange about it.
Nathan Fawcett said, "Then don't ask. I don't want to answer anyway."
There were many things he couldn't be honest with her about, nor did he want to be.
Nathan Fawcett's words completely shut down Anne Sutton's line of questioning.
She said, "I have plans tonight, so you don't need to pick me up. You can go eat with Stella Shields! I need to go see my mom. I haven't been over in the last couple of days."
