“Hey babe, guess what,” Brandon said, reading the message he’d just received from Jayden. 

“What is it?” she asked as she turned off the stove flame since she was cooking at that moment. 

“Your special arrangement is a done deal,” he said, showing her his phone. 

“Aw… my man always delivers,” she said playfully, giving him a kiss on the lips. “What do you think he needs? This would be the second time he’s asked you for something as Vox.” 

“I think it’s probably something related to his company, considering Deborah also asked us to investigate 

it.” 

“That’s true. In that case, I’ll get a head start and do a little digging on Gates Construction,” she said, taking off her apron. “Alright, put your phone away. Lunch is ready.” 

“Haha, I’m on it,” he said as he walked over to the sink to wash his hands. “And you know, it’s most likely to be about that. Even in my wildest dreams, I can’t picture Jayden asking me to kill someone.” 

That guy deserves it, though. I heard he tried to harass little James yesterday,” she said. “Joshua, luncht is ready!” she called out while opening the door to the garden. 

“Coming!” Joshua shouted excitedly. 

“What?” Brandon looked at his wife in shock as he dried his hands with a kitchen towel. 

“Yeah, my contact at the police department told me he was arrested at a restaurant where he cornered James in the bathroom.” 

“Wait, what?” he said, frowning. 

“Daddy, help me.” 

“Oh, yeah. Up you go, champ,” he said, lifting him so he could wash his hands. “Hey, Laura, did he do anything indecent to James?” he asked, already imagining various ways to deal with that man. Brandon hated those types of people who preyed on kids. 

“No, he kept swearing he just wanted to talk to James alone.” 

“About what?” 

“All done, Daddy.” 

“Here, son, dry your hands well,” he said, putting him down and offering the towel he’d used to dry his own 

hands. 

“Thanks,” Joshua said, giggling as heed the towel aside and ran to the table to take a seat. 

“I have no idea what he wanted to say to him in private, but since the whole thing was shady. He spent some time in holding until someone came to post his bail,” Laura said. “Here you go, sweetheart. Remember, you have to finish everything on your plate, she added as she served lunch to Joshua. 

“According to the spy who just joined that guy’s construction company, he wanted to get close to the kid

to tell him he’s a bastard because Jayden’s not his father,” said Sophia as she entered the kitchen. 

“Auntie Sophia!” Joshua ran to hug her. 

“Aww, hi, my little cutie,” she said, hugging him and kissing his cheek. 

“Haha, funny that you’d be the one giving me that info, Brandon teased. 

“Rude,” Sophia complained. 

“Come on, love, don’t tease your sister. Besides, I told you my lessons work wonders, and Sophia’s back on the right track,” Laura said, winking at her partner. 

“Auntie, where’s my cousin?” 

“She’s at her grandparents‘ house with her dad, but she’ll come over soon so you two can play together.” 

“Yay!” 

“Joshua, sweetie, let Auntie go and finish your veggies 

“Nooo…” 

If you do, I’ll give you ice cream,” Sophia said. 

“Okay!” Joshua said, returning to his seat to finish his meal. 

“If that guy targeted the Coopers by going after James, I can understand why Jayden is reaching out to me,” Brandon said, frowning as he sat down with his son. 

“And we’ll help in any way we can because James is a sweet kid. I hope he’s alright,” Laura said as she handed her husband his plate. 

“We’ll ask him in a bit. He said he’d come by this afternoon, and…” 

“Boss…” They saw one of the guards enter the office, looking worried. 

“What’s up?” the blonde asked, frowning. 

“A new client just arrived.” 

“Were you expecting someone?” Sophia asked.
