Chapter 12

Finding out that Molly’s mom wanted custody of Ellie was a shock to Josiah. Why would she want to do that? She had to know that would not only hurt Molly, but it would hurt their relationship too. Molly was a wonderful mom. Yes, money made things easier, but it certainly didn’t love.

Even more shocking were the kisses he and Molly had shared. One second she was looking at him, and the next, he was kissing her. He didn’t regret it, but it had been a bold move on his part. Especially knowing she didn’t want to date. Granted, kissing and dating were two separate things, but typically, they kind of went hand in hand for most people.

The best part was her kissing him. He’d started to apologize, and wham, she was kissing him. She’d called it quality control, which he had to admit was funny. In his mind, it had been the better kiss because she was making the move. Plus, he didn’t get the chance to apologize and say he wouldn’t do it again. He definitely wanted to kiss her more.

It was Saturday, and that had been a few days ago. Since then, things had felt a little different between them. They had kissed, so it was bound to change things—at least, in his mind.

At the moment, Molly and Josiah had sequestered themselves in Bear’s study with the phone on speaker so that if Case had questions, Molly could answer them. Plus, Josiah thought it was only right that she was part of the conversation. He knew if the situation was reversed, he’d want to be included.

“Hey, Josiah, what’s up?” Case asked, sounding out of breath. Not unusual as he was training for a half marathon that was coming up soon.

“I was hoping you might be able to point me to a family lawyer.”

“Family lawyer? Yeah, I can, but what’s up?”

Molly relayed everything to him, and by the time she was done, Josiah could tell Case had stopped running to pay attention.

Ellie began fussing, and without even asking, Molly handed her to Josiah. He gave Molly a cheesy grin, and she wrinkled her nose at him. Since the call with her mom, he’d gone out of his way to try to make her smile or laugh.

“So, if I’m understanding things, the adoption isn’t final. They can challenge it.” He paused. “Do you believe your mom offered them money?”

Molly crossed her arms over her chest, putting her thumb to her lips and chewing on it. She nodded. “I think so. My brother has been in and out of jail. The last time I cut ties with him was because he stole my credit cards.”

Case’s breathing had slowed enough that he was no longer panting. “Do you think there are drugs involved?”

“No,” Molly said. “He’s a thief, but he’s not a drug addict, and neither is Brenda. Ellie is a happy, healthy baby girl.”

“Okay,” Case said. “I think I know someone who can help. She’s expensive, but if someone is going to bat for you, you want her.
