"Grandpa, don't get the wrong idea, okay?" said Evangeline, almost begging, as she set the bowl down.
Evangeline faced Cole with all seriousness. "Walter and | have been dreaming of this baby since we tied the
knot. We've been planning for so long, and now that we're finally expecting, we're over the moon. | wanted to tell
you the good news first, and I just... | just forgot about Mr. Gordon!"
Evangeline dropped her gaze, doing her best to look like she was genuinely apologetic. She kept her fingers

better go tell him yourself. "We're the Fosters, a big deal around here. We can't have people thinking our
princess doesn't know her
manners, can we?"
Evangeline met Cole's eyes, knowing she could not dodge the bullet. She had to face the Gordons.

walked in, it was like a cold front had rolled through.
"Aria, scared stiff of saying the wrong thing to Trey, stayed put in her room, not coming out no matter who
called.
Trey was shaking with fury as he scanned the documents Thomas had brought. "Thomas, tellthis isn't true."
Thomas, the grandson of Trey's lifelong buddy and known for his level-headedness, had Trey's full trust.
However, the bombshell he had just dropped was about Trey's own grandson, the one who seemed to make a
career out of trouble.
Thomas had done his homework on the Gordons before showing up, so he got why Trey was seeing red." Mr.
Gordon, maybe my team goofed and handedthe wrong file. Hang tight, I-double-check and get back to you,
okay?"
He was sure of his facts, but seeing Trey, all worked up like that, Thomas felt a pang of guilt and tried to offer
sbreathing room.
However, Trey just laughed, a big,
