All these plans and schemes all to own and control Brian for money and power which none of them earned or deserve because of how greedy and selfish they are.

Brian isn't the prize in a cracker jack box he is a hunt being who worked for everything he owned , while they all were just too lazy and selfish to go out and work for it like he did and does.

John and Brian have a lot of years to mat up for and now they have the time to do it without anymore interference from The Lazy Idiots Club.

Thankfully Gus and the babies will be safe from Lindsay who only loves Money and Power, those kids will never be infected by her and her evil ways with this family to love and support them.

Joan has lost so much and there is no one who will care when she no longer walks the earth... well besides the bottles of alcohol at the liquor store lol

Brian, Justin have some plans to make concerning their children home and thus new family they are making with Melanie.

The Next Chapters Are Going To Be Interesting!!!

Thanks For The Update

Gods but I've missed your writing. Thank you for coming back strong. 

AHA! I got this one reread. It’s strange how I can remember certain aspects of these stories, and then there’s a HUGE plot, and it will be the one thing I’ve forgotten. But it’s all back now. And I had missed reading the last two chapters, so that was a big positive.

You know, Debbie and Nancy are both characters that can be written either way, and when the story is executed right, both are very believable.  Case in point, Before I Let Go vs All In 2.  Although you hardly ever see Claire written as a positive, with this story you’ve done a very good and believable job. And the true defining moment was when Brian really looked at her, before asking, How long have you been sober? I wanted to cheer. And when they decide to confront Joan, that united front was very positive.

Debbie… I just loved it when she went in to visit Michael and heard all the scathing remarks coming from him. Good enough. When something like that happens, I would hope that she would realize she has acted that same way when speaking to the others, especially Brian. Can she blame them for not wanting anything to do with Michael, and in turn, her? I was a little surprised she didn’t push Michael for more info when he mentioned Chris Hobbs, and admitting to giving Chris Hobbs some money for… a few things. I would have thought the first thing would’ve been the bashing.

The fact that Deb’s first thought when visiting Lindsay, she curbs her tongue, thinking: I need to light a fire under Edwards’ ass in defending my son. So yeah, still trying to help Michael. But then, Lindsay just had to let everything out. LOL... and maybe Debbie got a little carried away (as far as the law is concerned) but it’s also a very good cause – even if she has to get in a little trouble. I mentally tried adding all of Lindsay and Michael’s sins, but I think I’m falling short. One thing is for certain – I think Lindsay’s case will be worse than Michael’s. (at least he isn’t facing a statutory rape charge.) And just maybe, Lindsay will have a permanent spot with no hair. LOL…

The Little Einstein B name almost brought tears to my eyes. Oh if only Brian had known him from the start of his teen years, his life would have been so much fuller and richer. I’m surprised that John never contacted Joan about Brian. Hopefully, that gets explained. Maybe it’s because of WHO he is, and just WHO Brian is… UGH! PLEASE EXPLAIN! My brain doesn’t have a clue!

Whatever comes next, Joan, Craig, Lindsay, and Michael will deserve any and all punishment. I have to wonder if Joan gave Lindsay some pills, or something, so she could get Brian to sleep with her. And I was so proud of John saying what he did to Joan. I hope she’s spend-thrifty, because when the 10k is gone, there will be no more. Maybe when she ventures out to the liquor store, she’ll become acquainted with a nice big tree. (Lordy, that sounds awful. Shame on me!)

The names: Garrett vs Galveston – after reading it all at one time, I caught how I had mixed those names, what with both starting with GA… LOL… It really doesn’t take much sometimes. ????

I hope all is well in your corner of the world.

Hugs,

Cathy

did read it again. cant wait for update.  Love it.  stay safw

Oh dear Deb is always reactionary and it doesn't serve her well. Let's hope she can come back from here and win back some of her family 

You are a word genius. This chapter is perfection.

I always love a WASP attack when it's so well written.

I'm wondering why John didn't move forward earlier? Didn't he know that Brian was his son? He could have contacted him once he was 18 years old.

It looks like Brian will be able to enjoy a real father and a whole loving family

As I said I needed to reread. I am doing that. Love it.

As much as Deb ticks me off I kinda want to shake her hand for attempting to choke Lindsay out and getting her to admit what she was planning by using Gus and the twins to entrap Brian, though she still isn't off the list of needing her Ass Kicked repeatedly and the line forms to the left.

Deb may be ready to let Michael pay for his actions but she her actions have always spoken louder than her words which is surprising considering her loud she is verbally.

And plus her insistence that everyone forgive and forget Michael's behavior so she can have babysitters always on hand for her whiny baby is not going to be easy to forget.

The ties that bind has already been severed to Joan and Craig a d Deb has hurt too Brian way too many times for it not to be the same with Brian.

And Brian is about to get to know the father he saw as an uncle does he really need Deb anymore?

Thanks For the Update 😃

thanks for update

You’ve been updating your other stories...so what about this one???

Author's Response:

Hello Becky,

I love how unapologetically anti Micheal and Lindsay this story is! And I love this version of Brian and Justin. And the Emmett/Ben pairing is also pretty cool.

I hope you will update it soon 💞
