“You might have ruined Beau’s entire future. Letting your old prison would be too easy, don’t you think?”
His words sent a chill through her. She shook her head as tears streamed down her face.
“Harvey, I don’t want to go to jail! Dawn wouldn’t want to see me behind bars either! Every time I ended up at the police station, Dawn was always the first to ball me out”
Harvey cut her off mercilessly, “That was Dawn, not me. I’m Beau’s father.”
