Adam rolled his eyes.
Oh, my God. Can’t I just need my family’s help?
Thomas
What’s wrong?
Adam gave a short, unemotional breakdown of what transpired downstairs and of Noah’s behavior, leaving out that he’d fucked Noah into a coma.
Thomas
He thinks he could embarrass me?
Adam could practically hear his father’s horror from across the city. He hadn’t been lying when he said Noah was his father’s favorite. There was something about the boy that Thomas felt the need to protect. It wasn’t that Thomas didn’t love his other son-in-laws. He did. But Noah was special to him somehow, and everybody saw it but Noah.
Adam
Yes! I need the feelings faction of the family. STAT. I'm in way over my head.
There was a flurry of dots as several people typed at once.
Thomas
I’m leaving now.
Asa
Felix and Zane are on the way.
August
Lucas too.
Atticus
Jericho is already wrangling a gaggle of emotional boys at the garage today, but I can have him head over too if you think he can help somehow.
Adam
No, that’s okay. Thomas needs to fix this. Lucas can help. Felix and Zane are going to have to take up the slack for the wedding stuff.
Asa
I thought you had a wedding planner.
Adam
He fired her…again. Just send them. They’re the only ones he listens to anyway.
A separate text bubble popped up on his screen.
Zane and Felix in a group chat.
Zane
We’re on our way. Do NOT make him worse before we get there.
Adam frowned.
