His father nodded toward her, then turned his gaze back to his son,it clear he wasn’t there for formalities Abby realized this was the second introduction of the day for the pair, but Mr Oliver’s demeanor was far different than Cammie’s

If Kaden was nervous, he was also a uise because he leaned back in his chair, flopping an ar he had shared about their relationship, his coain, despite their similarities, he was so different than Abby While she would’ve been intimidated, he seemed comfortable

“We were hoping you could give us a little information,” Kaden said

“About what?” The hint of incredulity in Mr Oliver’s tone wasn’t lost on her

“There was a private investigatorLawson,” Kaden said “We wanted to see if you could give us some details on the case”

“Why?”

“It’s for a school project,” Kaden said, deadpan

Well, so Wonder what Cammie would make of that?

His father sighed and scrubbed a hand over his face “You know I probably can’t give you anything Especially if it’s an open case I can’t disclose inforation Even if it’s closed, technically, you’d need to file a FOYA before I could give you any documents”

His father glanced pointedly at Abby She shrunk down in her chair as Kaden continued

“What do you think I’ to do with it? Go to the press? There has to be soive us”

Although his father shook his head no, he asked, “Who was it? And I need more details on this school project first” He crossed his arail figured didn’t bode well for them

“It’s for criminal justice We have to find an unsolved case and create a couple of suspects from the information We’re supposed to use public police records and whatever we can dig up on our own, but since we couldn’t findyou could give us”

He sighed “Isn’t that a bit of an unfair advantage?”
