Off Limits (2015)
“Sell the house? What?
“This house?” I asked, stupidly.
“No, our other house, the mansion out on Pike Road.” Brenda’s smile and tone softened her sarcastic response. “Of course this house.”
“But why?” Jenna jumped to her feet from where she’d been sitting on the couch. “Why would you do that?”
“It’s way too big for just the two of us,” Brenda said. “Dad’s busy with his job and his hockey coaching.” After Gary had retired from the police force, he’d gotten a job as an investigator with an insurance company to augment his pension, and he still coached Peewee hockey. “I’m thinking about retiring in the next year or two and we can sell this place and buy a small condo and have money left over that will help us financially.”
I frowned. “Brenda, if you need money—”
She waved a hand at me. “We don’t need money, but it will give us a nice cushion for retirement.”
I fell silent as I thought about what this meant. Connor had his own place in the new development on the other side of town.
