"Will you shoot your own daughter?"
A pin-drop silence descended over the area, Marshal's voice echoing through it.
Deep frowns appeared on the faces around him. Even Carmella turned toward her husband in shock.
"Honey… what are you talking about?" she asked quietly, yet everyone heard her.
Ashley glanced at Carmella's reaction and immediately knew that the woman had no idea what was going on.
It wasn't surprising.
Carmella's treatment of Ashley had always stemmed from her inability to accept that her husband had allowed his mistress's child to live. It wasn't as though Carmella didn't know about Marshal's appetite for younger women. She simply looked the other way, believing that as long as Marshal never brought another woman or child home, she could pretend she knew nothing.
And knowing Marshal, he had deliberately hidden the truth from his wife to ensure that the child he brought home would suffer.
Julio glanced at Tommy. "Tommy, what's going on?"
