Chapter 50

• “Anyway, you are a part of their family now, Cam. His dad is serving a life sentence in jail, but I think Paul talked to his lawyer and Parker’s father might be out of prison soon. Parker just found out yesterday, the point is, you are not alone, that we are still lucky to have the people who treated us as part of their family. You grow up in a beautiful home. A lot of foster families don’t treat foster children well. I grow up with Dad who isn’t always around. I once liked a Cinderella who has a terror step-mom. Dad found out how she treated me then divorced her, then Dad re-married again to another woman. Mom is somewhere in London who doesn’t even care if I’m still alive or not.”
• “Thanks for telling me this, Emily.” I squeeze her hand.
• Her eyes light up. “Tell me about you and Pyke.”
