âKennedi, if you think ending my life will give you some peace, go ahead.

âDonât mistake my hesitation for fear.
I could kill you for exploiting my emotions, and causing my fatherâs downfall.

He paused momentarily to reply, âSheâs out shopping for underwear for me.

Once again, a frown appeared on Rosalynnâs face.
âBarlow, I need to warn you.
