Chapter 20

^^^Sam's P.O.V.^^^ A.N. let's spice it up a bit.

He cheated on her. The one person I thought could love her the way she deserved to be loved slept with another woman after leaving her with his abusive brother. I defended him in front of my mother! I helped looked for my sister when he was keeping that from us all of this time. I wanted to take her back. Hide her better than anyone else could.

I could barely breathe over the pounding rage. "Did you know?!" I looked over at James with a quizzical glare. "Did you?!" I practically screamed.

"Yes! Damn it! I knew!" James swerved a little on the highway. Terrified by my sudden outburst.

"How dare you not tell me! How dare you?!"

"Don't even Sam. This is why we didn't tell you! You wouldn't have helped!"

"Damn straight. I wouldn't have married you."

Avery's P.O.V.

James visibly slackened. The car slowing down and changing into the slow lane. I flinched at my sister cold statement. Knowing exactly what the butt of that felt like. I saw his eyes in the mirror. I have seen many broken men, but his face made me want to huddle into a ball and cry. "James I will drive." Tyler whispered from beside me, "let the girls have their time to talk." He pulled over and they all did a Chinese fire-drill.

Sam was silent next to me. I could practically feel the hatred. "If you didn't run the first time..."

"I would have been stuck with mom and dad and so would have you. Do you really want to go back there?" I stopped her.

"It seems better than this shit show." I could agree more.

When we reached the building some odd amount of hours later. I was greeted by many of the staff members and multiple paparazzi. Tyler tried to push me through but I turned around and faced all of them head on. "Avery!" "Avery over here!"

"Avery, why did you run?"

"I ran to find a place for our honeymoon. To surprise him with a full plan of vacation for our marriage."

"Why did you cut your hair and pose as Sandy Wilkens?"

"I couldn't afford people knowing who I was when I was running."

"Why would you do that to Tyler?"

"A publicity stunt for the upcoming elections. But due to me returning so early all of these things are no longer set in place. We will keep you updated on our next set of actions. Thank you!" I ushered Tyler back inside. "Feed them now not later." I marched up into my room.
