JASON’S POV

“How’s your marriage?” Rufus asked.

“How do you expect it to be? All lovey-dovey?” I scoffed.

“You still haven’t answered my question.”

“Well, I can’t.”

“Oh, stop it and just speak.”

“We haven’t been talking.”

“Why?”

“I don’t know.”

Rufus sighed and nodded.

“As your friend—and unofficial counselor—I’ll advise you to talk to her.”

“Why should I?”

“Because you need to swallow your damn ego, bro.”

    ALEXAMom was staying with Steve and his wife for the meantime.I drove into the compound and parked my car.The guards greeted me as I stepped out.I took a deep breath before walking toward the house.I needed to find out if my mom knew Father Michael.As I entered the house, I saw Mom coming down the stairs.“Alexa?”She looked slightly surprised to see me.Then, almost immediately, her expression changed.I wondered why.“What are you doing here?”I raised an eyebrow.“Are you not happy to see me?”I pouted dramatically.“You've not been calling or visiting, so yes, I'm surprised to see you.”She said it flatly.I sighed.She was right.I hadn't been checking on her as much as I should have.Between the court cases, the documents, and everything happening with the family, I barely had time to breathe.“I'm sorry, Mom.”“It's fine, Alexa.”She came closer and held my hands.We both sat on the couch.“So, how have you been doing?” I asked.“I'm managing.”She gave me a small smile.

    THE ANDERSON'S MANSIONMAX'S POVDinner was served promptly at seven.Herb-crusted steak rested beside creamy mashed potatoes and buttered asparagus. A basket of warm dinner rolls sat in the center of the table, while a fresh Caesar salad and glasses of sparkling water completed the meal.For dessert, there were slices of New York cheesecake.It should have been a normal family dinner.But something felt off.I stretched my hand toward Laura and Lisa.“Let's pray.”Lisa took my hand immediately.Laura, however, slowly pulled hers away.She closed her eyes and whispered a prayer beneath her breath before reaching for her fork.I frowned.That was strange.Lisa, seemingly unaware of my concern, dug into her food immediately.I glanced at her.She had a stern expression on her face.I couldn't understand why she had been acting so distant lately.After dinner, Laura quietly went upstairs.I watched her disappear before turning toward Lisa, who was sitting on the couch, typing furiously o

    JASON'S POV"Yesterday?" Alexa asked.She narrowed her eyes, as though trying to process what Dad had just said."Yes," Dad replied quietly.I rubbed my jaw, anxiety twisting in my stomach."How did Mrs. Stones find out about Jeffrey?"Dad sighed deeply. His face had gone pale."Katey has her ways. She's sneaky, intelligent, and resourceful.""She couldn't have known about Jeffrey by chance," I said. "I think she has someone watching us."Dad immediately stood and began pacing around his study."And who would that be?"Alexa suddenly gasped.I turned toward her.She covered her mouth, her eyes widening as though something had just clicked in her mind."What is it, Alexa?" I asked."Josie."The name dropped into the room like a stone."Josie?" Dad repeated.I frowned."What's wrong with Josie?""She was in the dining room when we were talking about Ashwood Psychiatric Hospital," Alexa explained, nervously biting her lower lip.Dad stopped pacing."Let's not jump to conclusions.""I don
