Junie is my rightful wife .
And my parents are not yours to address so intimately ! A flash of resentment flickered through Tatums eyes .
Before she could speak , a small figure ran up to them .
A little girl grabbed Dylans pant leg and shook it .
Daddy , Daddy , Grandma and Grandpa are calling you over ! Lets ignore that bad woman , okay ? I want to see Mommy and Daddy together ! The words bad woman made Dylans expression turn even colder .
He fixed his gaze on Tatum .
Did you teach her that ? Tatum , shes just a child .

You wont have a say anymore ! Without waiting for a response , he turned and walked into the hall .
The news of the plane crash still shone on his phone screen .
