"I thought they cared about Patrick, but when I arrived, Jayceon's dad and grandma were berating him. The maids were holding him down, forcing him to kneel. Jayceon wasn't even there; who knows where he was at that time? It madeso mad." Patrick, still chewing his food, looked up at Brenna with wide, pitiful eyes. "Brenna, I never want to go back there. They were all mean. That old lady with gray hair yanked my hair and kept talking about doing skind of DNA test. She even said I only cback for the Russell family's money and called Mommy a bad woman too! They're bad! Every single one of them. I'm never going to Daddy's house again." Brenna caught his troubled little face in the rearview mirror. If she had known how cruel the Russells could be, especially to a child, she would have taken him with her when she left.
"You're not going back there," she assured him. The Russell family had crossed a line.
Ellie spoke up, her voice tight with frustration. "By the tI got to the Russell estate, Patrick was already on his knees. Their whole family was surrounding him, asking him how I made a living in Norview and whether there was a man in our home. You wouldn't believe the kind of filth they were spewing. And you know what made it worse? Jayceon wasn't even there. Only God knows where he ran off to. I tried calling him, but his phone was off." Brenna felt her chest tighten with anger. "No wonder you never wanted to get back together with him, even though he's rich and Patrick's father." "Even if every man on the pldisappeared, I still wouldn't get back together with him," said Ellie. "Don't let the fact that he's friends with your brother and Mr. Mitchell fool you. He's nothing like them. Your brother and Mr. Mitchell, especially Mr. Mitchell, are decent. They don't mess around with women. Jayceon, on the other hand, is pure trash. He says I'm the only woman he has ever loved, and at the stime, he's sleeping around with another woman. Fay sentpictures of her and Jayceon in hotel rooms three times this month. Just looking at them makes my stomach churn." After a pause, she continued, "And get this, just last night, past midnight, he calledall panicked. He tried to explain what happened. He said it was surgent crisis at work and that if he didn't deal with it, he'd lose three hundred million. He beggedto understand him. Can you believe that? In his eyes, Patrick and I don't even cclose to that amount of money. And he still thinks I will believe whatever he says. Please. I'm done falling for his crap."
