My CEO 94

94 My Way (Jayden)

"Daddy! I saw Mommy. I miss her." Abby cries out when she comes in the door with Anne. My heart goes out to her, but I must maintain this façade.

I scoop up Abby and hug her. "I'm glad you got to see Mommy."

Anne watches me closely. She's vehemently loyal to Winona and Abby. So Winona is back in the townhouse. Good. I know she's under house arrest until the case is over.

There's no chance of her doing anything to break those terms and I know she's safe. No one can get to her there. It's been difficult being back here with Ashlyn and I'm not leaving Abby alone with her. Anne sleeps in her room and goes everywhere with her.

This confession thing better work because I don't see how we can prove Winona innocent without it. Her father is a useless witness. He'll easily be proven untrustworthy with his track record. "Mommy is sad."

"Abby, we can't talk about Mommy right now, remember? Let's go take a bath, have some supper and then I'll read your favorite book," Anne says gently.

"I'll come read to her."

Anne nods at me. "I'd like to talk to you later."

"No problem." I wonder what this is about?

"I've come to see my granddaughter. Nothing wrong with that, is there?"
