“Alright, I’m heading over now,” Jonathan said, hanging up the phone.

Teresa had overheard and said, “Thanks for today. If anything comes up, let me know. I really want to find out if that old lady is actually your grandma. If she is, we should talk.”

Jonathan unlocked his car. “Don’t assume the worst. Get some sleep, and I’ll reach out when I know more.”

“Okay,” Teresa replied, watching as Jonathan drove away.

Gordon had already woken up in the hospital. Standing by his bedside were Irene, Heidi, Edward, Donald, and Jennifer.

When Jonathan arrived, Edward filled him in, “Gordon was just mumbling to Jennifer.”

Jonathan frowned. “What do you mean, mumbling?”

Jennifer said, “I’m not going to demand an apology from someone who isn’t in his right mind. So let’s just leave it at that.”

Irene suddenly cut in, “So, what do you want?”

Jennifer didn’t bother with Irene. She just looked at Jonathan and said, “Let’s stay out of each other’s way. Don’t mess with my family, and we won’t mess with yours.”

Irene thought Jennifer was talking about Teresa, which was exactly what she wanted.

Jennifer added coldly, “If Gordon isn’t stable and you let him out again, and he hurts me or my family, I won’t just sit back and take it.”

Jonathan’s eyes darkened. “Sorry. All this drama is just over a bracelet. It was my grandma’s, and that’s why my grandpa lost it. If we can help him get over it, everything else will be fine.”

Jennifer shot back, “The bracelet was a gift from my adoptive mother. It has nothing to do with your family. If you bother her, I’ll just assume you’re using

this as an excuse to pester my sister again.”

Donald was shocked and tugged at Jennifer, clearly unhappy with how blunt she was being.

Irene finally lost it. “Watch your mouth. My son isn’t into her!”

Jonathan cut her off. “Even if I tried to force Teresa to do anything, with her temper, she wouldn’t listen to me anyway.”

“Good,” Jennifer said, turning to leave. Donald followed right after. He was fuming as they left the hospital because Jennifer had to be this harsh.

“I just wanted Irene and her family to know I’m not someone they can mess with,” Jennifer said.

Donald said, “But did you ever think about me? You were so harsh to Jonathan and Irene right in front of me. Now they’ll think I was okay with it. Jonathan’s always been good to me, you know.”

“You just keep giving in to them, and they keep pushing their luck,” Jennifer retorted.

Donald felt completely drained. He wondered, ‘How long is she going to keep going on about this?‘

Donald said, “He’s an old man with dementia. He didn’t ruin our wedding on purpose. You’re making things way too complicated. Jennifer, we’re married now–we’re supposed to be a family. Why do you always shut me out?”

Jennifer’s heart sank. “So now you’re blaming me?”

Donald didn’t say another word. He just opened the car door for her, and they drove the whole way in silence.

Jennifer noticed he had a new car. He never told her where the money came from, and she never asked. She had her suspicions, but since he never brought it up, she kept quiet too.

Irene was so angry at Jennifer that she was about to explode. Heidi kept trying to calm her down, secretly thinking, ‘Thank goodness Jennifer isn’t my daughter–in–law. There’s no way I’d ever agree to that marriage.‘

Irene and Heidi hurried to bring over a fresh meal. Jonathan patiently fed Gordon, spoonful by spoonful. Once he was full, Jonathan said, “Fiona’s asleep right now. Are you sure you want to go see her?”
