Chapter 168
Addison’s POV
Guilt hit me hard hearing what Garrett said, but I know I can’t fix my mistake. I made them as a scared and angry eighteen-year-old girl—one who had been dealt several painful blows at once. My life had changed in the blink of an eye. I didn’t have my mother with me to talk things through and help me navigate as I had before. I had to rely on my own opinion. I didn’t think things all the way through like I should have.
I allowed fear to control me and what I wanted to do. Garrett might have wanted to take Corbin away from me, but I wasn’t alone anymore. At the time, I felt bad because I didn’t know my family and didn’t want to burden them, especially not right after I joined the family. I didn’t want to cost them so much money to try to fight Garrett in court.
