Chapter 11
Amy
If John’s mission had been to make everything ten times worse, then he’d accomplished it. Amy could feel herself drowning under the information he’d just given her. It was too much. How was she supposed to deal with an explosive family secret when she was standing on the edge of being kicked out of that family? Why had John told her? What had he hoped would happen from the truth coming out?
She sat down on her bed and thought about it all. His father had sent him away because of her. He’d sent his own son away so that he could ensure that his lawyer came out top of her classes. She’d never really thought about it before, but he’d always been strict about friends coming to the house. She’d sometimes managed to get permission for some of her female friends, but never the guys. Had John’s father stopped her from dating? Had he really taken away the only boy that she’d ever really loved, because he’d loved her back?
She groaned into the silence around her. If what John had told her was true—if he really had been sent away because of her—then she would never be able to take the job she wanted. There was no way that John’s father would send away his own son without having backup plans further down the line too. What was she going to do?
Through the oppressive lining of thoughts, she could feel a gentle nudging. There was more to the conversation than just her future career. There was more to the conversation than what John’s father had done. There was one small trace of good that had come from John coming to her room. There was one question he’d answered that had plagued her ever since he’d left. He had tried to get in touch. He hadn’t just cut contact and left her for those eight years.
Amy found herself on her feet, before she even knew what her plan was. She walked through the house quickly. She didn’t want to give herself time to chicken out or back down from what she was about to do. She found her stepfather where she had been expecting to find him. She walked into the study without knocking and enjoyed the look of outrage on his face.
“What are you doing, bursting into the room like that?” he demanded.
“I need to talk to you,” Amy said without slowing her stride. She came to a stop when she’d reached his desk and pulled out a chair that had been pushed under it. She sat down and took her time getting comfortable. She didn’t care that he was glaring at her. In fact, it made the whole thing feel better than she’d thought it would feel.
“Well, that much is clear.”
“You see, I’ve just been talking to John.” She watched to see whether his expression would give away any of his guilt. It didn’t. He held a steady look of outrage and contempt, but showed no trace of what he’d done to either of them.
