Chapter 62

Derek got a call from Larson the day after Brad got settled into his apartment. Derek was there, having spent the night helping him christen the apartment’s bedroom—and living room and…

He smiled happily down at Brad as he leaned over him to get his phone off the nightstand.

“Derek, Larson here. I have some information on your father.”

“What?” Derek asked, instantly sitting up.

“I’ll tell you when you get here. I’d rather do it in person.”

“I’ll be there in an hour—or less.”

Hanging up, Derek told Brad what Larson had said. “It can’t be good news if he won’t tell me over the phone.”

“Only one way to find out.” Brad swung his legs over the side of the bed. When Derek cocked an eyebrow in question, he said, “I’m coming with you.”

“Thank you.” Derek felt a sense of relief that he wouldn’t have to face whatever the news was alone.
