Chapter 13 Meeting

• “Teacher Cassie, this is my father, Liam Chapman,” Lukas says with pride. “Father, this is Teacher Cassie.”
• When Liam Chapman approaches, I stand up and hit the back of my knee on the couch. His dark eyes are trained on me. He stretches his hand, and I retreat from him.
• “Nice to meet you,” he says. He takes my hand and shakes it. His grip is solid and warm. “I have heard so much about you. My son has been raving about you.”
