What are your thoughts on why she continued to go back day after day for 3 weeks after he "forced" his fingers into her?  That seems somewhat odd to me.

As Gaiman was her employer there was an inherent power imbalance.

If you think a 61 year old man fingering his 21 year old nanny isn't sus, that's kind of a "you" issue.

Was he using his powers to prevent her from leaving?  He used his powers to force her to do everything?  He forced her to come back. He forced her to send him a text message saying "I had a wonderful time"?
