CHAPTER NINE

When the result of the paternity test arrived on the first day of the BBQ, it was just bad timing. Tennessee was hard-pressed to even find a minute to worry about it. When he told Heath, they both agreed that he needed to talk to Molly. But then the unthinkable happened on the trail ride. Someone fired a shot and Cato was hit. She wasn’t badly injured, but no one could understand why anyone would want to hurt her. After some investigating, Tennessee and Bowie Travis concluded she wasn’t the real target. Heath, Zane and Cato were convinced that Philip had been the target and this had something to do with the murder trial. As far as they could tell, Cato had just been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Doing what he did best, Tennessee began tracking the shooter, spending days going over every inch of the Highlands to try and determine who had attempted to kill a member of his family. But no matter how hard he and his friends tried, they found no clue. Nothing.

As the days approaching Philip’s trial sped by, all of their attention was focused on him and the work being done to clear his name. Cato was proving invaluable. Her work at the Cultural Center gave her access to land records and she was working with Zane and Presley to find something that would point them to the real killer and the reason for targeting Philip.

Even with his family in turmoil, Tennessee couldn’t forget he had a child on the way. One night, when he found himself at home alone, he made the phone call he should have made days before.

Molly was at the diner, pushing herself to get through another shift. When her cell rang the first time, she ignored it. Her hands were full. Penny was shorthanded and depending on her. But the second time it rang, she was waiting for an order to come up and could take the call. Glancing at the display, she saw it was Tennessee. Her heart shot up into her throat.

“Hello?”

“Molly, its Tennessee. We need to talk.”

“Okay.” She swallowed hard. “I’m listening.”

“I got the paternity test results.”

“What do you want me to say, Tennessee?” Molly whispered. “The baby is yours and I’m glad he is.” Molly bowed her head, wishing she could call back the words.

“He?”

A small smile escaped her lips. “Yes, he.”

Images of a little tyke in a cowboy hat and boots came to Tennessee’s mind as he became aware of an uncomfortable tugging sensation on his heart. “Why do you say that you’re glad the baby is mine?”

Ire rose in Molly. No way was she going to confess her feelings to him. She hadn’t known Tennessee for a long time, but it was long enough. All rich people thought you were after their money. “Don’t get me wrong, Ten. I want this baby. It’s mine. And since I’ve already made the mistake of becoming involved with you, I’m glad I at least have the baby.
