Sean pulled back in his father’s arood care of Mama?"

"It’s not like that, Sean, but yes, we’ll take care of each other Are you ready, Sherlock?"

Isabel ushered the area across the hall fro, of course, now that Rob and his girlfriend have arrived"

No surprise in that Savich and Sherlock followed Isabel up the wide staircase Isabel said over her shoulder, "Mr Sullivan has arrived as well Ms Venus toldroom She wants to speak to you first, Dillon"

They found Guthrie, Alexander and Rob grouped together across from Venus’s bedroo in voices too low to hear until Guthrie said out loud, "Enough is enough I want to see my mother" He stepped toward the closed bedroouards barred his way

Isabel stepped in, calling out, "Ms Venus made it clear she doesn’t want anyone with her, Mr Rasent Savich"

Guthrie whirled around to frown at Savich

Veronica said, "Dillon, come quickly, Dr Pruitt said he was alarmed at how anxious she is to see you, and to show you in immediately Let me tell Venus you’re here"

"No, Veronica, please stay here with the family" He looked at each face, then at Rob and Marsia Gay, who gave him a tired smile He nodded to Sherlock

"Dr Pruitt insists Grandmother wants to speak to you, but that’s absurd I don’t even knohy you’re here" Savich turned as Alexander took a step toward him "What could she possibly have to say to you that she can’t say to us? What is this about? You’re not even a blood relation, much as you may wish to be--instead of a loser cop"

"Well, that would be par for the course, wouldn’t it? Guns and violence, that’s what you’re both about, like my little brother here"
