I was disappointed by him.
"Honey, say something! Are you just going to stand there and watch them bully me?"
With a sigh, he turned and walked away to the room.
When the police knocked on the door, I went to answer it.
As soon as I set my phone down, Lauren rushed over and slapped me, only to then quickly return to her sobbing act in front of the officers.
"Sir, please, you've got to help me!"
Parker and Kamora chimed in, accusing me of abusing Lauren.
There were visible bruises on her arm.
The police had no choice but to take me to the station for questioning.
After giving my statement, they advised me to go stay with my parents until the investigation was completed.
In the end, I received divorce papers in the mail, and my child, driven mad, killed me.
Now that I'd been given a second chance, I was not going to let things play out the same way.
Before Lauren even got the chance to fight me for the baby, I calmly spoke up, "Honey, why don't you call your brother and his family over? I'm against our son wearing that vest, but changing his fate is a big deal, and I don't want to make the decision alone."
