We break apart and go in our separate cars.
Sage and Will had already gotten in Ethan's, Luka, Drei, Max, and Isa are in a different car, and Dad, Martin, and Alex are in my car.
I get in after putting the suitcase in the trunk and start the car, driving first out of the gates. While I'm driving, they're all loading guns.
"So Bella, would you like to give us an idea of what's about to happen?" Dad asks, loading a clip into a glock
"Cordell hasn't ever liked me, he thinks I should be a trophy wife to Ethan. He also likes to show how much he hates me by messing with my family" I say
"Who all is on the plane Bella?" Alex asks
"Remember when I said I needed you to not ask questions? That would be about what. I want to tell you, trust me I do, but if I do that puts them in danger and I can't have that happen again" I say and they all go quiet
"на моей кровати есть фотография, прочитайте ее после того, как я уйду" I say to dad quietly
(there is a picture on my bed, read it after I leave)
"Don't ask questions, just read it" I add and he nods
We sit in silence a little before my phone rings yet again.
"What?" I answer annoyed
"I suggest you don't answer me like that, your family won't enjoy the consequences" I hear the voice say
"What do you want?" I ask slowly
"I told you to leave, so why are you in a car with them?" They ask
"You're right, you did. Except I know you know everything, meaning you know what is happening at my airstrip. Therefore, they are helping me. I am not leaving without my children and if history repeats itself, I will not leave at all. Do I make myself clear?" I ask
"You do, so I suggest you don't fail tonight. They may help you but you will cut all contact with them when you get on the jet. Consequences still apply. Now do I make myself clear?" They ask
"I believe you'll find another way to contact me. Good bye" I say in a hard voice before throwing the phone out the window
"There was a reason I didn't want you to ask questions, all it does is make it harder for you" I say to all of them
"Can I ask who all is on that plane now?" Alex asks
"You will never tell anyone. Not your family, not your friends, not your alliances, not even the person you tell everything to. Понял?" I say
(Understood)
"Понял" They all reply
"Julianna is on the plane, as well as Ethan's brother" I start
"So Will's girlfriend and Ethan's supposedly dead older brother?" Dad asks and I nod
"My kids are also on the plane. Hayley and Hunter" I say making them all go quiet
"How old are they?" Martin asks, being the first one to break the silence
"They turned one last week, 7:56 in the morning" I say with a subtle smile
"So we have a niece and nephew, and he has two grandkids?" Alex asks
"да" I answer
(Yes)
"We do what ever it takes for family, but you owe us an explanation" Dad says
"I know, I just don't know when that will be" I say
