ASHER
It had to come out someday and maybe today isn't exactly ideal but Ashley and I have been lugging this secret alone for far too long. My world has been falling to pieces ever since father broke his promise to me. I figured it's time he feels a few thorns of his own.
Ashton doesn't take it well and that is no surprise. He walks right out of the restaurant and knocks down one of the cameras of an annoying guy that got too close to his face to get a shot. The ruckus outside is wild. Thankfully, we are at a distant table from the handful of elite customers in here.
Father is mad that I could have stopped Ashton but refused to. He isn't wrong. I need him to see that my brothers and I can very well destroy everything he's built if he ever thinks of casting us away.
