32 Aribel “I spoke to my uncle.” “Good,” I said softly. I’d been trying to remain calm, but my hand had been itching to call the cops all afternoon. I knew Grant didn’t want me to. I also knew he didn’t think logically or rationally about anything regarding his father. I didn’t want to go against his wishes before he got back to me though, so I held off. “What did he say?” “He’s going to get ahold of my father and try to meet up with him. I think he’s starting to understand how much I want to f*****g steer clear of him. My father is a determined man, but I think my uncle can talk some sense into him.” “Okay. Do you know when that’s going to happen?” “Hopefully today or tomorrow. I think it’ll get him out of Princeton for some time so you won’t have to worry.” I blew out a breath.
