“What if I told you that I still want to go even though you don’t want me to?” I asked as I tried to keep my voice from shaking.
“I’ll take you along,” Hayden replied emotionlessly.
“Really?” I asked without bothering to hide my disbelief.
“Yes. That’s what Harvey thinks that I should do as well…” Hayden said before letting out a long sigh.
That made me realize that the talk that Hayden had with Harvey must have been about this. That didn’t give me any insights as to why Harvey thought that I should go along with Hayden, though. I wondered what the two brothers were thinking and then my mind drifted back to wonder about what Ethan was thinking.
“I guess…I’m not so sure why Ethan would want me to be there…” I admitted in a small voice.
“He probably thinks that having you there will help convince me to do what he wants,” Hayden replied, clearly displeased.
“Will it?” I asked, curiously.
