“I think we’re done here,” Gonzalo spoke up. “Juniper, sweetie, let’s get the four of you in so you can give your statements, and we can take you out for a nice lunch. We’re going to miss our tee time so we may as well get a chance to spoil our new daughter.”

“Our?” Carl asked as if he wasn’t ready to stop talking.

“Oh, let me introduce you.” Juniper smiled cattily. She waved at Phineas. “This is Phineas Perez. He’s the CEO of the company I work for. He was the one who let me know my husband was fucking his wife.” The words echoed around the police station during a lull in conversation and suddenly it got quiet as people realized a scene was playing out. “He was the one who was man enough to tell me the truth, even if he knew it was going to hurt me. He has stood by my side every minute since making sure I’m okay. He’s the one who carried me bleeding through my clothing while I was miscarrying your son’s baby. He was as covered in blood as I was, and he didn’t flinch over it. He knew he was the one to deliver the news which broke my heart and he hasn’t left my side since.”

“I –”

“Shut up Carl,” Juniper held a finger up and then she swung it at Beni. “This is Benicio Rojas. He’s my lawyer. He’s the one who with Phineas delivered the news and promised to be my legal representative when the time came and he’s been an invaluable asset. He has held me through some of my very ugly

crying, protected me with everything in him and overall made sure I was cared for and even arranged therapy for me. This is Adil Benton. He’s the PI who figured out who Phineas‘ wife was screwing and he’s the man who helped me build a case against Kyst by digging out all the dirt on him. He was the one who gave me facts. He was the one who made me smile again. He bought me a kitten,” she shot Adil a smile and he winked back. “In the last several weeks these three men have done nothing but take care of a woman whose life they upended. Their care and their concern and their affection has made me fall in love with them.”

“It hasn’t been a month.” Lois gasped.

“And yet it feels like it’s my whole life. I mean if I can bleed another man’s child all over Phineas‘ lap and not make any attempt to move me while I do it, but instead, holds me closer, make me feel safe and protected from the way my heart was shattering, I think it speaks to the kind of man he is. He’s also a billionaire, far above your station, Carl and yet he has no qualms at all about my social background. Beni is loving and kind and tends to all my emotional needs without hesitation. Adil is the sunshine in my day with his exuberance and laughter and the way he wants only to see me smile, makes me want to smile.”

“But you come from nothing,” Carl sputtered.

“I don’t give a fuck. She doesn’t need money. I have enough.” Phineas brushed his hand over her shoulder before Beni and Adil moved to complete the embrace.

“You’re with all three of them?” Carl choked out the words as if

he were wheezing.

“Yes. I am.”

“Rojas? You’re allowing your son to be part of this?”

“Are you kidding? I thought for years these three were in a relationship and too shy to tell us. If she’s the glue which binds the book together, then so be it. I save my judgmental side for the courtroom, Kennedy. When is the last time you saw the inside of one?” he looked around the room, “where is the girl who got hurt? I need to offer her my firm’s card.”

Juniper giggled.

“You can’t be serious.” Carl looked at the three fathers. “You’re all okay with your sons being with the same woman?”

“It’s Juniper,” Phin said with a shrug. “Do you know what I know about my daughter–in–law and her family already?”

Carl frowned.

“I know her mother is the hardest working woman I’ve ever met. She puts in a full day, and she does it respectfully and kindly. She is part of our family because my wife adores her and thinks she is more of a friend than our housekeeper. My wife loves her so much, she was the one when all this shit went down, was holding Maeve’s hand and yelling at our driver to get her friend

to her daughter fast. Maeve is a great mom, and I have a lot of respect for her. You judge her because you’re a lawyer and she’s a housekeeper but frankly, I respect her more than I would ever respect you, Carl.” Phin said bluntly.

“You don’t even know me.”

“Oh, I know you. You’re the guy who got caught fucking his college professor for a grade. We all went to the same school, Carl.” Phin mocked him. “We just didn’t run in the same social circles. You know, those circles of smart elite students versus the kind who barely know where the library is located but can walk through the girl’s dorm and know the name of every girl in each room. We weren’t the same.”

“Carl?” Lois asked quietly. “What is he talking about?”

“Nothing.” Phin smirked as Carl blanched. “As for my daughter–in–law, your loss is my greatest gain. She’s smart. She’s beautiful. She is feisty and strong, which is important in the world we live in. She can hold her own. She has a will of steel and a resolute mind which I am very impressed with. For all of these characteristics, she is also sweet, loving, kind and gentle.”

“How would you know?” Juniper looked at him cheekily.
