450 The Petersons

Lucy paced to and fro the length of Harry's office door as she waited for the father and son to finish their discussion inside the office.

She wasn't sure she had ever felt as anxious or restless in her life as she did at that moment. She wished she could at least hear what they were saying.

With each step she took she prayed that Harry would react as reasonably as she believed him to be and wouldn't be too harsh at Aaron.

"Calm down, Lu," Tom, who was seated on the waiting chair, called out to her when he got tired of watching her pace to and fro. Watching her one would think she was standing outside a delivery room and waiting for a pregnant woman to put to birth or something.

Even though he had a series of meetings on his schedule which he needed to go for, he had asked Harry's secretary to reschedule them as this was more important.
