Jake's POV
Victoria’s fury turned to me and Dad. We were both stunned, speechless. I mean—Mom really just threw us under the bus, reversed, and drove over us again. And the shocking part? Dad didn’t even try to defend himself. He didn’t say, "Actually, it was your mother’s idea." No. Instead, the man looked Victoria straight in the face and said, "Congrats, kiddo. I knew Jake wasn’t the only genius in the house."
SEE WHAT HE DID THERE?
He made it sound like he was just the supportive dad who believed in both his children equally. This man! I can’t. I really can’t. My own father just sold me out, live, in HD, and all to keep Victoria from exploding.
At that moment, I looked around the room and accepted a new truth: my entire family is full of backstabbers. Just like Victoria.
Of course
