My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 42

Everything happened so fast my mind was still processing the fragment of moments that occurred. I haven't seen Jax so mad since he found out I lied to him about Rebecca and Hunter.

Still, this was a different type of anger. This was hurt. It was his pain. This was the one thing in the world that could ever hurt Jax.

His father impregnated another woman and rather start another family then fix his relationship with his son. I couldn't imagine what was running through his mind.

We sat on the bench that was besides the house and a little garden was planted with flowers growing out from it. The night sky was illuminated with stars shinning bright above us.

"Do you want to leave?" I asked Jax, placing my hand on his lap.

He didn't move a single muscle. He's been staring off into space for the past ten minutes clouded by his own thoughts.

I watched as he blinked and furrowed his eyebrows from time to time. I hated seeing him like this. He looked so confused, betrayed even.

Bobby and Monica were inside with Chloe finishing up dinner and let us come out here for some alone time to let Jax cool down.

After Monica told us the news Jax broke out into a spiraling mess. He started yelling at his father and telling him what a joke he was.

I didn't feel a bit of embarrassment or pity for Bobby. He did in fact deserve what Jax said to him. He was never a father to Jax or Amanda and now he wants to be a father to someone else.

"I hate him" Jax grits his teeth.

"I know," I sigh in frustration. "I know you do , Jax but you can't let him get to you."

"How am I not going to let him get to me when he does shit like this?" Jax spat as he threw his hands all over the place as he talked. "He's fucking stupid."

"I think you should talk to him. Tell him how you feel and make him see why this was hard for you." I suggest.

"Talk to him?" He laughs. "Clearly you don't know that man that well. What makes him think he can take care of another kid if he left his own children? And Monica," He scoffs. "Some thirty five year old who clearly only loves his money."

The more I heard what he was saying and the pain he was sharing with me, the more anger I felt towards Bobby. It had to hurt Jax a lot to come here and see his father live his perfect life with someone else.

"I'll be right back." I give Jax a kiss on the cheek and stand up from the bench.

"Where are you going?" He wonders.

"To do what you should have done long ago."

Entering the house once again, I take a deep breath in and prepare for the worst. If Jax wouldn't make his father understand, then I would have to do it my way. I wasn't going to let Bobby move on with his life with Jax tied by the hand.

"Bobby," I say entering the dining room. They were all laughing at the table before I interrupted. As the seconds past I swallowed any nervous feeling I felt and stood my ground. "Jax is done with you."

He chuckles and looks over at Monica as if expecting the same laughing reaction from her. I knew he viewed himself as untouchable but I would break him down if it meant protecting Jax from him.
