Chapter 10

“Hey, Braxton,” Knox said. “Since you got that big school contract with Dad’s friend, you need some help? I know someone with accounting experience. She can help you count all the dough.”

To himself, Knox sounded like a telemarketer. Pathetic. But if it meant Jada didn’t have to return to Memphis, he was willing to humiliate himself.

“Man, I wish you had called last month. I just hired someone to do my books. Sorry. You tried Paige? She might have something open in her division.”

Knox spent his entire lunch break calling friends and family who might be able to help Jada. With her following up and him putting out feelers, they should be able to come up with something soon.

Lord, please don't let her move back to Memphis any time soon.

He finished his workday at the office, then checked his phone again as he walked to his car. Paige had texted him about a possible position at her retail company, and his other cousin, Shiloh, pointed Knox to a link for an accounting opening for his employer.

He called Jada to share the prospects. When she answered the phone, he immediately heard yelling in the background. “Jada?”

“Yeah,” she said.

“Umm...is now a good time?”

“No. As you can hear, my sister and her husband are having a disagreement.”

The words he heard signaled more than a disagreement. They were goin’ at it ferociously.

“Shall I call you later, or do you need me to come get you?”

“No. I’m fine. Just text me what you’d like to say. I gotta go. Bye.” She ended the call.

Just listening to the chaos second-hand had jarred Knox. He couldn’t imagine what it was like to live in that environment day in and day out. What was worse, a baby lived there, too.

Knox set his phone on the passenger’s seat of his car and prayed. “Lord, You know what’s happening in that household. You know the frustrations and issues Jada’s sister and brother-in-law are dealing with. I pray that You would show Yourself to them—together or separately, however You wish to do it. Bring peace for Your sake, Jada’s sake, and the child’s sake. And protect Jada’s mind and heart until You open another door for her. Be glorified as You show them all a different way. Your way. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
