"Good morning. Where is Shane?"
"Good morning, Bliss. The last time I saw him, Shane was talking with dad in the kitchen."
"Thanks, Carly."
Shane and dad turned around as soon as I walked into the kitchen.
"I know I said I didn't want any part of the lawsuit because I didn't want to go into another courtroom. But regardless of my fear, I am coming to support you with this. Grayson needs to suffer - whether it is jail time or monetarily. And I understand that by going, there is a chance of getting called to testify. I will do it. Today is the final part of the blackmail scheme. We will be done with the past today."
"Sweetheart, I'm proud of you. Adrian and I will sit right next to you. And so will Kalani," Dad Brently says while hugging me.
"Thank you, Darling. And you look beautiful as always."
"You're welcome. And, thank you." I grabbed some of the fixed breakfast and sat down with Kim, Austin, and Braelyn.
"Thank you all for coming. How are mommy, Logan, and Natasha?"
"The baby is noisy at night, Aunt Bliss. Mommy and Logan said hi."
We had to crack up. Out of the mouths of babes.
"Layla said she couldn't make it, but to say she has yours and Shane's back."
"Thanks, Kim. Oh hey, how would you like to travel with me to Barbados? We can look for space for the company. And you can visit your family. Austin can come too."
"I would love to. My family asked me about meeting you, Austin. Will you come with me? They would like to meet Braelyn too, but I wasn't sure if she could come. I don't want to overstep my boundaries."
"I would love to come with you. When are you going to Barbados?"
"We can go when Braelyn has Spring Break from school."
"I'll check with Layla, but I'm sure it will be okay."
"The limos are here. Let's start leaving the house," Shane says as he walks over. We all grabbed our bags and sunglasses. After everyone was out of the house, Shane locked the door. Then, we got in the limos and left the house. There were media vans lined outside our gate. Thank goodness our house is gated.

On the way to the courthouse, I saw the sign going up for The Elegant Canvas. Love it. There were more media lined up at the courthouse.
