Love Always Wins

Chapter Seventeen

Brie was in her office doing some work when she looked up and saw her family come in the door. Amy sat papers down on her desk. Brie looked through them.

"Tell us this isn't true, sis," Amy said.

"Did you file for sole custody, no visitation for my brother, and issue a restraining order against my brother because you fear for your life because he hits you?" Trisha asked.

"Oh god no I would never do that," Brie said.

"Boys, we have some hunting to do," Ben said. Ben, Sam, Nate, and Greg left. Brie looked at her sisters.

"What's going on?" Brie asked.

"Your ex struck again," Trisha said.

"He delivered those papers to Marco," Amy said.

"That son of a bitch," Brie said.

"I know Marco would never abuse you," Trisha said.

"No, he wouldn't, he treated me like a queen," Brie said.

"I know he lied to you but it was before you guys were together," Trisha said.

"I know, Trish, I was going back after I got done here," Brie said.

"The baby is his, they are doing joint custody," Amy said.

"He will have her on the weekends, Emma never wanted Marco back, she just wanted him to know about the baby being his, she's with a guy who wants to be a father to the baby as well," Trisha said.

"Brie, you know he loves you so much, he may have lied but it was the past and you are the present and future," Lucy said.

"I know that now, I was up all night thinking about it all," Brie said.

"Let's get you home to your man," Amy said.

"Yes I need him," Brie said. They went to the house and walked in and Marco looked up and saw her and got up and came over to her and she went into his arms. Lucy and Amy put her bags down.

"I'm so sorry, baby, I love you so much," Marco said.

"I love you too, no more lies, okay," Brie said.

"I'm an open book, baby," Marco said.

"Good, the guys went to find that jackass," Brie said.

"Found him!" Ben said. They came in the house dragging Lance in.

"Brie help me," Lance said.

"You deserve what you get, asshole, how dare you give Marco fake custody papers and and restraining order, I would never do that, Marco would never hit a woman but he would hit you, right babe?" Brie said.

"You bet," Marco said. Marco went over and punched him out.

"Marco, it's your call," Sam said.

"Call the cops, he broke some kind of law right?" Marco said.

"Yes he did," Amy said. They called the cops and they came and took their statements. Marco handed them the papers and they looked at them.

"And you didn't have these done?" Detective Frank Burris asked.

"No I didn't, I would never keep Marco from his child and Marco would never hit a woman," Brie said.

"He's my son and I taught him that," Daniel said.

"These look real to me, I need to see your signature ma'am," Detective Frank Burris said. Brie got some paperwork out and they compared the signatures.

"He signed your name, they don't look the same at all," Detective Frank Burris said.

"I hope you keep him locked up," Brie said.

"We should not have a problem with that," Detective Frank Burris said. They took Lance out the door. Brie hugged Marco.
