Marshall stepped in to stop the hysterical Helen. He turned to Sloane and spoke as if tossing her a scrap, “Sloane, if you still want to stay in the Rivers family, you’d better help us figure out how to get Boone out of this mess.”

Sloane looked straight at him and gave a faint, unreadable smile. “You must be joking. If none of you can fix this, what exactly do you expect me to do?”

“You can go ask Lucas for help,” Adrian said quickly, eyes locked onto her with a sense of urgency that brooked no argument. “You’re still his fiancée.

Helen was startled by the iciness in her gaze and instinctively let go, though she still snapped back, “What’s wrong with you? This isn’t the time to be petty. Boone is suffering in there, and you’re really just going to sit back and do nothing?”

“So, my so–called family is willing to destroy me… just to save Boone.” Sloane
