“I don’t know if I like her or not,” Jacob said

“I do She’s different, and considering Landon’s issues, I’d say that’s a plus in our favor,” Gabriel said, taking a seat in the office

Rick looked at his two nephews He hadn’t wanted to have kids where his now-dead brother Maddox had six of them, seven if you counted Gabriel, and whatever children he hadn’t laid clai hih of a proble in his way He wasn’t about to add a brat into it as well

“She’s the only e’re going to bring Landon in If we don’t do this soon, he’ll cause one too many problems we can’t fix I don’t like to deal with the fallout of people and our associates thinking we can’t control one of our own It doesn’t ood”

“You heard the girl Landon was coone Dead We can’t use this girl”

“I think that girl is Landon’s real woman”

“Look, she has no idea who that girl is How do you even know if she’s Sarah’s twin?” Jacob asked

“They were separated at birth,” Gabriel said “It’s the only answer, right?”

“But all the details check out on Sarah We had her thoroughly checked out Sarah Smith is, you know, the proper child of her parents They are her birth parents”

“Having a kid is overwhelht?” Rick said “What if Sarah was a twin but the parents got rid of Tulip at birth? They kept one they could e, and the other they put up for adoption”

“I can tell you if that was me, I’d be so pissed,” Gabriel said “So wait, you think that between Sarah and Tulip’s twin thing, Landon got the signals confused? Like, he felt so for Sarah but it was kind of like a blur because of the twin thing? I have no other way of describing the twin stuff”

Rick laughed “That’s exactly what I think”

“And if you?

?re wrong?”

“We pay Tulip and send her back home She clearly needs the money Believe me,” he said
