Chapter Twelve

Following a nervous flight to Juneau, Bubba sat around a large table the next afternoon and listened to Kenneth Eklund, his dad’s lawyer, read the last will and testament of Colin Wright. The room was packed full, with him, his brother, Zoey, Tracy Eklund, the lawyer’s wife—who also served as his assistant—Sean Kassamali, his dad’s business partner, and his wife Vivian. Also in attendance were Rocco and Phantom. Bubba had asked them to attend to keep watch over everyone there, and so they could relay any particular names to Tex, to see if the computer genius could come up with a reason why someone would want him, and possibly Zoey, dead.

The more he thought about how close they’d come to being missed by the search chopper, the more Bubba was convinced his pop had to have had a hand in their rescue. He was usually never as careless as he’d been at the stream. Nothing had happened the way he’d planned it, and because it had been so FUBAR, it made him think it had all gone down exactly the way it was supposed to.

He was happy to be alive. Happy to have reconnected with Zoey. He was pleased he was able to see his brother in person. Talking with Sean was also good. The man had always been somewhat of a grouch, but it seemed that Colin’s death had mellowed him some. He wasn’t the same asshole Bubba remembered him being in the past. He said a lot of great things about his pop, and it was clear the other man loved his friend and was devastated he was gone.

“If it’s okay with everyone, I’m going to paraphrase what Colin said in his will instead of reading the legalese word for word,” the lawyer said after everyone was seated and ready for him to begin.

Kenneth was in his mid-fifties and wore a gray suit with a red tie that didn’t seem to match the solemn occasion. He was around five foot nine inches tall and had a pronounced beer belly. His light hair was combed back and Bubba could see the lines his comb had made in it when he’d last brushed it back.

His wife and assistant, Tracy, stood behind his chair and looked bored out of her mind. She’d said all the right things earlier, telling Bubba and Malcom that she was sorry for their loss, but her tone didn’t exactly match her words. She was quite a bit younger than her husband, and stood at his same height in her two inch heels. She had on a black dress, which hugged her slender body, but all-in-all, simply looked as if she was trying too hard to be fashionable and younger than she really was.

When everyone agreed, he continued. “Right, so Colin had about a hundred thousand dollars in cash in his accounts. This money will be evenly split between Mark and Malcom Wright, and Zoey Knight. The house he was living in will go to Malcom; the house Zoey was renting will go to her to do with as she pleases.
