Peter was so agitated that he coughed violently.

Larry immediately sht his m*uth.

“D*mn it!” Larry cursed himself for not being to hold his tongue. He had spoken too soon.

This had nothing to do with him, but he had butted in nonetheless.

Especially Madelyn and Dwayne.

Peter had changed.

In the past, Peter would have never said a word about feeling guilty toward

Jane.

“Peter, you… I saw you lying unconscious. I heard that you had met with Jane earlier and so I was worried that you…”

Jack felt very humiliated to be called out like that by his son.
