"Your dad has known about ot to drinking one night shortly afterMom orried that she’d told your ain She needed to keep us safe Your mom sat mine down for coffee, and they talked for hours while Jaylinn and I were out playing with you and your brothers"
This was probably going to dig the stake in her heart a little deeper; I knew she was still pissed off about her dad lying to her about being an FBI Agent
"Your ent and that she knew for a fact that he’d help keep us safe Your dad tried to take my mom into headquarters but she refused to talk about it Heas we lived near your family that he’d always look out for us and protect us He said no fa like that"
I looked over at her and noticed that she was now crying Fuck! She’s ripping otten to the worst part yet I ranaway the tears
"I think that’s the reason…" I shook my head, "No, I know that’s the reason Mason, Cooper and Jackson didn’t want you and ether They say it’s because of your dad but I don’t believe that"
