“Jameson did tell me that you hired a private investigator, but he wouldn’t tell me why. Care to spill the beans?”
Laney glanced away and took in a deep breath of air, which normally would clear her mind, but now it only made her thoughts more muddy.
How could you, Jameson? she thought. She should have known better than to trust her brother with a secret. He was so damn honorable sometimes.
She turned back to Brooke. “He wouldn’t tell you why because he doesn’t know the reason. It’s my business,” she stated, struggling to keep her voice even. She didn’t want to offend Brooke, but she had to ask the question.
“As is my baby. Please tell me you didn’t tell Jameson my secret,” she implored.
“No! I didn’t tell him anything,” said Brooke in a shocked voice. “But after all that he and I went through to be together, we’ve had enough secrets to last us a lifetime. And we really don’t need any more.”
Laney bit her lower lip. “I know. I’m sorry to have put you in such an awkward position. I don’t want anything to come between you and Jameson. You guys are perfect for each other.”
Brooke crossed her arms. “Believe me, I can understand why you want to keep this all a secret. But when are you going to tell your family, Laney? And more important, when are you going to tell him?”
Him.
Austin. The man who was no more than a family friend was now more intertwined with the Browards than anyone realized.
Laney leaned over the railing. “Today. At the family meeting. Everyone will be there and you’re right. It’s time.”
She stared down at her riding boots, caked with mud. Just thinking about telling her parents and her brothers that she was pregnant made her want to saddle up Stella Rose and ride off into the sunset.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t sure that this time there would be a happy ending.
