"I'm warning you, keep your distance from Evangeline! She's still your sister-in-law. If you stir up trouble, Grandpa won't let you off the hook!" Walter's threats hit home.
Ever since they were kids, Walter was Trey's golden boy. Alex was the one always in the hot seat, the one who had to step aside for his little brother. Why, though? Why did Walter get to lounge on the Gordon family's mountain of cash, living the high life, while Alex had to ditch everything and start from scratch in a foreign land? Even though they shared the sface, life had played favorites in the cruelest of ways.
"No way!" Alex had never felt so sure about anything before. Memories cflooding back, all those times he had backed down, and for what? Absolutely nothing. Here he was, penniless and still putting up with his little brother's threats. He was done taking it.
His face was stone-cold, his eyes like lasers as he called out to Walter. "You and I both know the real deal about how you and Evangeline got hitched, Walter. No need forto spell it out, huh?" Walter's face went from pale to ghostly, as if Alex had read his diary out loud.

"What's so special about you, Alex? How on earth did Evangeline end up falling for you?" Alex just smirked. "There's a reason for everything. I'm a catch, so it's no surprise Evie fell for me. But you? You're just a stubborn, selfish guy who only cares about his own happiness. The idea of any girl liking you is just... laughable." He had finally let it all out.
All the bitterness he had for Walter cpouring out in one glorious rush.
Man, it felt good!
