Excerpt
“I booked a room at the Inn. I wanted to drop off his things and then prepare for the interview tomorrow.” Rebecca shifted her eyes to look at him. He could tell she was confused by all of Bell’s questions.
“Oh, no, you shouldn’t stay there. It’s just not safe. You can sleep here. No family of mine is overnighting at that place. Why, just last week our friend, Deputy Brian Arnold had to lock someone up for disorderly conduct in the lobby.”
Aunt Bell turned to him. “Walker, get her bag from her car, and I’ll set her up in the mother-in-law suite.”
“No, really, I—”
Bell patted Rebecca’s hand. If the situation wasn’t so serious, he would laugh. But he knew that there was no way Aunt Bell would allow Rebecca to leave her sight.
“We have so much space here at the ranch, honey. It’s not a big deal. Besides, we must think of the safety of you and the baby.”
After a long pause, Rebecca finally gave in. “Well…all right, thank you.” Aunt Bell had raised five boys in her household. She was strong-willed and could get anyone to do anything she wanted before a person even realized she was doing it.
Bell patted the hand she was holding. “Perfect. Now, let me show you to your room while Walker gets your bag. Don’t just stand there, Walker. Go on.” He nodded and jumped up off the couch.
“This way, dear. It’s perfect timing. Walker’s brothers are coming over for Sunday family lunch in about an hour, so you can meet everyone.” Walker didn’t hear Rebecca’s response as she and Aunt Bell disappeared around the corner that led to the bedrooms.
What was really going on here? He needed time to figure it all out. And having the woman who claimed to having his late cousin’s child here, even overnight, would help him get answers. Plus, he was certain Aunt Bell would be devastated if Rebecca left with her only grandchild.
If this truly was Vince’s baby, he would figure out a way to keep the baby close.
