Justin felt like a total jerk for using his RoboCat identity to help himself out. Hadn't he promised himself not to do that when the whole Brandon mess happened? His morals had gone more and more out the window.
Emily made him desperate. Crazy even. He couldn't lose her, not now after finally being able to enjoy being by her side.
He really should have told her about his job sooner. But really, how would he have brought it up? 'Hey, Emily, guess what? I'm only eighteen but I have several employees who are a lot older than me!'
She probably wouldn't have believed him. It took her seeing evidence of his financial security to be convinced he was telling the truth when he finally confessed.
Even worse, she only knew a small fraction of the truth. She would really be mad if she knew he was rich…and that most of the money came from Sink or Swim. That was the main reason he didn't want her to find out about his assets.
