"Come on," Aaron commanded, releasing her backpack handle but wrapping an arm around her shoulders so she couldn't wriggle free as easily.

　　She struggled against him all the way to the front gate of the school to no avail. He practically tossed her into the back seat of his limo and ordered the driver to go to an address she didn't recognize.

　　"Where are we going?" Keeley asked suddenly, anger and nerves battling for dominance inside her muddled head.

　　"You'll see when we get there," he said before going silent for the rest of the ride just like last time.

　　"A chocolate shop?" She shook her head in disbelief.

　　This wasn't any chocolate shop either. It was the most expensive one on Madison Avenue. Keeley went to it exactly once when shopping with some other socialites in order to forge connections for her husband in her past life.

　　Everything tasted fantastic but one tiny bonbon cost about ten dollars. a.s.sorted chocolate boxes here went up to the hundreds.

　　"What do you want?" Aaron asked coolly, pulling out his wallet.

　　"There's no way I could eat something so expensive," Keeley stammered.

　　What on earth was he doing? He dragged her halfway across the city for sky-high priced chocolate…why? Because she cried? Impossible. Aaron never cared for her like that even during the better days of their relations.h.i.+p.

　　"Pick something or I will," he said sternly.

　　"I really—"

　　"One medium box of a.s.sorted chocolates and a small bag of chocolate covered oranges."

　　He ignored her completely and held out his gold card to the cas.h.i.+er. It was amazing that he had such a high credit limit while he was still in high school.

　　Keeley felt a bit faint when she glanced up at the menu and saw that Aaron just bought $137 worth of chocolate on a whim. If her friends had any idea of this, they would flip.

　　Buying a $1.50 candy bar from a vending machine was usually too much for their budgets. Even Keeley couldn't remember the last time she had enough spare change for a Snickers.
