“WE HAD to do it considering the fact that Berkely’s men scared Frank Hanks out of town”
Not that he had anything to do with Callan getting shot but they did Tina Hanks a favor really. She wouldn’t oust her husband as an abuser but everyone with eyes could see it.

“It’s their first sleep over, Nicole. Connor might be a social fucking butterfly but Jr is rough around the edges”
“You mean he takes after you?”
He did. Jr took after Callan that every time I looked at him, he looked like a mini-Callan minus the grumpiness.
“He’s my kid after all”, Callan said proudly as I hooked my hand with his.
He tried to hide it but I saw the rage simmer in his eyes for a sec at the jewel gracing my finger.
