Although it was a pretty big deal for these two brothers to confess their secret plan to their father and pretty much everyone else in the gang, they did not hesitate to have the meeting as soon as possible. After Harvey was quite certain that Amelia’s condition was stable enough for him to leave her side, he got Hayden to schedule a meeting with the boss immediately. Within three days of our visit to see Amelia at the hospital, the meeting with the boss was upon us.
“You should come along,” Hayden told me the night before.
“Huh? Me?” I asked with unfeigned surprise.
“Of course. Who else could it be?” Hayden replied sarcastically.
“I didn’t expect that you would want me to come along,” I admitted honestly.
The talk concerned matters between the brothers and the boss so I hadn’t considered that Hayden might want me there. Why would he want me there anyways?
