As Brad kept apologizing on his knees, Shelby did not know how to feel about that. The only thing she was definite about was that Brad was afraid of his elder brother in a way. It was so glaring of a fact that Brad was almost shaking when he bowed his head almost to the floor and apologized fervently.
It was obvious he only did it because of some repercussions he was scared of. Considering the fact that his brother had been barely 'out' from his self-imprisonment for an hour, it showed that the influence he had on Brad before was strong enough to linger even after all that time had passed.
However, what was baffling for her was the fact that he kept beseeching her to make something stop.
She felt herself suddenly get more upset and nearly tipped over to anger over the fact that he was making demands and apologizing in the same breath. Where was the sincerity in that?
"Make what stop?"
She had no idea what he was referring to!
