“You used to call me Richard.”
“And you used to call me brat.”
He chuckled. “Not to your face.”
She smiled for the first time in days. “No, not to my face, but I knew you disapproved of me.”
Turning in his seat to face her, he said, “I never disapproved of you, Melissa, but sometimes I disapproved of the things you did.”
She couldn’t meet his gaze. “The wildest Hamilton kid has a news flash for you, Richard. Recently I’ve done a lot of things you wouldn’t approve of. Making mistakes seems to have become my forte.”
“People can change, Melissa. It’s not too late.”
“I hope you’re right.”
