"The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive."
- John Green, Looking for Alaska****
Jacob Scott.
From the moment his name came up, I lost control. I acted impulsively, as Harry had done many times before, and simply cut James' throat.
I didn't care what else he might have wanted to say, I just wanted to silence him. To be honest, I just didn't want to believe that my brother had anything to do with it. But that's how it seemed to be.
We always had a hard time getting along with each other, our sibling bond was fucked up that's true, but still he is my big brother. He should want to protect me instead of harming me, shouldn't he?
I just never expected him to ever work against me. As he got older he was hardly ever in London and we rarely saw each other. I knew he was involved in the family business, but was never interested enough to find out more.
That could be a problem now, because I have no fucking idea what he does exactly. I thought he was working in the office...doing paperwork or something.
Harry said yesterday that he probably works with the Kiwi clan and this idea is so absurd that I almost laughed out loud. But what was even more abstract was his suggestion of the idea of Jacob working with our dads.
I mean, what does that even mean? It's not like our dads are planning something against us. But apparently that's what Harry suspects.
No. Right? I can't imagine that. Sure, my dad isn't the most innocent man, what goes on in his hotels isn't always legal I'm aware of that, but I'm thinking of something like illegal poker games or some other shit.
If he was really a criminal, the CIA would know about it and would take action against him.
So for me there are only two possibilities left, that Jacob is either working alone slash with a stranger for whatever reason or that he really has to do with the Kiwi clan.
Fuck, both possibilities pissed me off and I just wish none of them were true, but after all, I have to be realistic too. And that is that he is a suspicious little asshole.
I'm going to find out the truth and if it's the last thing I do.
But at the moment my thoughts were not only with Jacob, whom I wrote a message yesterday, but also with Harry. As always, when do I not think about him?
Anyway, at least I learned that he can still surprise me every time anew. Not only do I learn more about his past but also about his development since our first meeting.
