Chapter 0234
(James POV)
We decided to adjust our seating arrangements before Andrew was brought in.
Charlotte and Lily were now sitting in the back corner of the office, where they could not be seen right.
away. I sat in the guest chair closest to them. This would allow me to partially block them from Andrew’s
view, and it would also keep Lily fairly close to me in case I began to lose my temper.
Dr. Hyder sat in the guest chair on the other side of the room, leaving Brady to sit behind the alpha desk. Dr. Hyder insisted that he was not ceding control to Brady, but rather acknowledging that there were benefits to having a large desk separating Brady and Andrew. In other words, Dr. Hyder wanted to make
sure we interrogated Andrew before Brady killed him.
The center guest chair in front of the alpha desk was, of course, reserved for Andrew.
When Andrew finally arrived, he walked in as though he did not have a care in the world. He gave a
passing glance at Brady, and then greeted me with a bro-hug.
“Hey, Cousin! I did not know that you were here. I assume that is why I was asked to come up here?”
“Sit down, Andrew,” Brady said coldly.
Andrew raised his eyebrows. “Do you want to tell me why?”
“I said, sit down,” Brady repeated in his alpha tone.
Andrew smirked and sat down. “Okay, okay. No need to get your panties in a twist. If this is not about a
family reunion, I guess this is about Sammy?”
Brady growled. “Funny how that wasn’t the first thing you asked.”
Andrew smirked even more. “He’s a sweet kid, but he’s also resilient. As long as you cooperate with the kidnappers, everything will be fine, I am sure.”
“You sound awfully jovial for someone whose stepson has been kidnapped,” I pointed out.
“And you seem awfully calm for someone who is about to give up his mate,” Andrew retorted.
I frowned. “You know.”
“That Lily is your mate? Yeah, I figured that out. A lot too late for my liking, but I still did. I understand that Lily and Evelyn look alike. True doppelgangers, from what I have been told.”
“I am not giving her up.”
“Thankfully, no one expects you to. Lily will give herself up. After all, she does not want Sammy to die.
You see, Cousin, you found yourself a kind one. That is both your weakness and hers.”
