Brandon Piers felt like he was going mad.
As soon as he thought of Abigail lying on Jeffrey Foster, that man holding her and saying he loved her nonstop, he lost his mind.
These days he didn't ignore her messages because he didn't want to; it was because he was afraid he would lose control, afraid he would hurt her.
When he was a kid, he didn't understand why his mother went hysterical because his father liked another woman. He didn't like her; he thought she was crazy.
Everyone believed his father's death was the result of a conspiracy from other branches of the family, but he knew better than anyone that they merely fanned the flames. The real person who killed his father was his mother.
Love turned to hate.
He still remembered his mother's near-crazed expression as she stroked his cheek after his father's death.
