My jaw quivers. My nostrils flare. “Good to know you actually care for once.”

“That’s the best you’ve got? Attack my character right now?”

“Saxon is fine. This is not what it looks like, Hunter. The only reason Cutter has been in town is to rehab an injury. He’s swimming, Hunter. I’m a lifeguard. Okay?”

“So you were just giving him mouth to mouth to save him from drowning?” Hunter asks.

“Fuck you,” I snap. “What I do in my free time isn’t your business.”

“It involves our son. Are there pictures of Saxon online? Do I need to contact a lawyer?”

My heart sinks. “I dare you. Asshole.”

I hang up on Hunter.

My legs feel rubbery so I sit down.

Maryanne enters the room. “You okay?”

“Oh, just my ex threatening to call a lawyer,” I say. “Normal morning for me.”

“Is this the same guy that only sees his son once a week for about four hours?”

“That’s the one.”

“He’s a fool. Ignore him.”

“He’s right,” I say. “I would do the same thing. It’s not good, Maryanne. I didn’t sign up for this. Yet I did.”

Maryanne nods. “There’s more than just pictures, Piper.”

“What does that mean?” I ask, jumping up.

What can be more than just pictures? Videos? Videos… of what…?

I start to panic.

“Someone did this on purpose,” Maryanne says. “There’s a whole article with it. Someone didn’t want to have to leak all this stuff. You should read the article.”

It takes me seconds to find the article.

… living up to the reputation of a man who would push an older woman in front of a moving car, would it surprise you to find out there are some serious skeletons in the nine-figure contract ballplayer’s closet? Imagine that. A contract well over one hundred million and this is what we get? When I say ‘we’ who exactly do I mean? Well, let’s take a look.

The integrity of the game? Does that matter anymore?

Would you want your son or daughter walking up to this man to ask for an autograph? Will he or she get the autograph? Or will your child get scolded by this out-of-control man?

Speaking of that.

The word ‘man’…

Am I the bearer of bad news? Am I a gossip person? Am I looking for clicks and a chance to make some money?

I personally feel some things are best left unsaid.

So I’ll ask Cutter Buckley directly.

Why are you hiding from the truth? How can you call yourself a role model to children when you don’t even care about your own?
