Oh yeah, this plan is definitely a good idea.

“How about you and your husband?” Lorenzo snaps, fisting his hands at his sides while Yasmin looks between everyone with shock.

Who knew there was actually something that would shut her up and get her eyes off me?

Kavan stops near us and demands, “What about Rachel and me?” though his eyes stay on me, full of anger that makes my lips twitch with amusement.

Fucker still thinks he can intimidate me now that we’re around people. What he needs to understand is that I don’t care about my actions. I just fucking do them, and shooting him seems like a good idea to me.

“Oh, you know, I just mentioned that Scottie and I are moving to Wincher in two weeks. She already has a residency lined up. Your wife wanted to know who will have Sammie if Scottie moves, you know, because she has permanently left him with her after Scottie stopped fighting her,” I goad and he growls like a fucking dog as he steps forward slightly.

As I said, he thinks he’s safe.

“Sapphire isn’t going anywhere,” he snaps, glossing over his own child and Rachel quickly adds, “She needs to watch Sammie!” while shooting daggers at her husband for calling Scottie her middle name.

And the mother of the year award goes to…

“Are you serious right now, Rachel?” Lorenzo snaps, making her jump, while Kavan just glares at me and I smirk.

“You ready to get this done?” Marshall asks, and I nod as Lorenzo looks at Scottie quickly, hearing his father before he gets the plan in motion and mentions to Kavan. “Well, it isn’t like you can watch your own son when you’re playing happy families with the child you produced next door, huh, Kavan,” and Kavan freezes as Rachel’s head swings his way.

“Isn’t the reason why you actually had the snip is that the mother of your now five-year-old wants more kids. Otherwise, she’ll tell Rachel about you fucking her, but you still thought you’d have a chance at winning Scottie back?” I add, and Kavan's breathing picks up before he snaps and lunges at me, but I duck, not allowing him to get a cheap shot again, just as I hear Scottie shout, “Bradley!” with concern.

Fuck I love that woman.

I don’t look her way, knowing her mama is keeping her back, aware this could happen. I quickly grab Kavan’s right arm knowing he’s left-handed, twist it behind his back, then put him in a headlock just as Lorenzo holds papers in front of him and a pen.

“Sign the fucking papers!” Lorenzo demands just as Rachel snaps, “Dad, get off me!” and I smirk.

“If they’re divorce papers, you don’t need to restrain me, I’ll fucking sign them! I only want Sapphire,” Kavan snaps, and Rachel gasps while I grip his arm tighter at the mention of my girl.

“They’re not divorce papers, they’re adoption papers, to sign away Sammie!” Lorenzo sneers, and Kavan, who struggles against me, grabs the pen and signs where Lorenzo is pointing without hesitation. As soon as he’s done, I shove him away, causing him to stumble forward, then turn and look at me, fists clenching. How I would love for him to attack again so I can finally get rid of the fucker. But alas, I have bigger fish to fry.

He takes a step forward and I smirk as I move my cut and show him my gun.

His nostrils flare and I know he knows he can’t beat me. Growling, he spins on his heels and storms out of the yard but not without looking towards where my girl is, and I slowly lick my lip as Ellie mutters, “Pussy!” causing Marshall to chuckle.

“They weren’t divorce papers?” Rachel chokes, and Lorenzo snaps, “He has a child with someone else!”

“And I don’t care!” she sneers, “While Scottie wants him, he is mine, little miss innocent, little miss can do whatever she wants, little miss I want to be a doctor so I will be. All while we had to abide by our parents’ rules, because dancing wasn’t a job, dancing doesn’t pay the bills, dancing won’t keep your allowance.”

“I had to pay my own way,” Scottie says, “I had to work my butt off and you had everything handed to you on a plate.”

“I don’t care!” Rachel shouts, “Oh look, Scottie took her first step, oh look, Scottie just loves her big sister…”

“She’s on fucking crack!” Lorenzo snaps, “It was a milestone, Rachel, they were the same with you and me.”

“And they should have aborted her!” she snaps, “I’m their daughter, not her!”

Okay coocoo crazy…

She storms over to her brother and snatches the papers, and I step forward, but pause when she grabs the pen and signs her name next to her husband's. I smirk when she gloats, “And now Scottie can’t even have Sammie!”

Lorenzo quickly takes the papers, and I step forward, causing Rachel's eyes to travel my body and back up again, and she mumbles, “All I need to do now is fuck you and let you knock me up, and she’ll vanish like I’ve always wanted.”

Crazy, crazy, crazy…

“Actually, you’ve just guaranteed that Sammie will be coming with us to Wincher,” I state, causing her to freeze before her eyes go to the papers and I confirm, “Yeah, those were adoption papers for my girl and me, so thank you for that.”
