36 Chapter 36: That Talk

“There’s something else I have to talk to you about.”

“That sounds serious.”

Sean swallowed hard. “It is serious, Colleen. I need you to listen with an open mind.”

“Are you going to talk me out of defending O’Shannon? I don’t want to hear it if you are.”

Sean shook his head, his gaze going to her. “No, Colleen.” I licked my lips. “Remember when I asked if you had ever wished for someone else to get to something and they did?”

“Yes and I’ve been thinking about it and I may have some instances that it happened.”

Okay. That made this a little easier. “So you do recall that happening?”

“Yes, but like I said, I’m kind of selfish.”

“You haven’t done it recently?”
