I thought Cal Jacobs was the worst man on earth, but that was before I met Charles Maddox.
I knew he was friends with Cal, but I didn't know how close he was to him. I didn't know that he knew what Cal did. I didn't know that Charles sometimes accompanied him in his secret activities.
"You got something to say?" Charles asked his son after he finally made it home after skipping school.
The first thing Charles made him do was sit down on the small chair in the corner of the living room. He paced back and forth while Jamie watched nervously.
Oscar rolled his eyes at his dad. The last thing he wanted was another stern taking just because he was being a normal kid.
"Don't you roll your fucking eyes at me, son." Charles almost growled out. He didn't like when people ignored his questions.
"Whatever." Oscar tried to stand up from the chair, but Charles pushed him back down.
"Charles." Jamie stood up from the couch she was watching from. She knew her husband could get a little out of hand, so every time one of her kids got into trouble she was there to make sure nothing happened.
Charles chuckled as he shook his head back and forth.
Just then the front door open to show Carson walking through the door. She took one glance at what was happening before rushing upstairs.
Oscar glared as he watched his sister walk up with stairs. How could she just act like nothing was happening. Fuck her.
"She's a slut addicted to drugs, but It's the end of the world when I skip school?!" Oscar yelled in his fathers face as he stood up abruptly.
"Oscar!" Jamie exclaimed, not liking the way he talked about his sister.
Charles clenched his fist together. He knew his daughter was perfect, but he could at least pretend.
"Say something like that again and you'll regret it. You're grounded, so say goodbye to your phone." Charles held out his palm waiting for his son to put his phone there.
Oscar's was fuming, but regardless took out his phone from his pocket and placed it on his dads hand. He shoved past his dad and ran up the stairs to his room, making sure to slam the door.
"I'm going to the Jacobs house." Charles told his wife without even given her a look. He grabbed his jacket and walked out the door.
