Redeem Me (Say Something Book 4) Read Online Free PDF

Trevor stops and they both look at it.
    “What do you think, baby?”
    I lift my hand and can’t help but smile. He has taken the time to put a different color in each flower winding around the T.
    “It looks amazing.” I lean over the table and kiss his cheek. When I pull back he wraps it in clear paper and kisses it.
    “Leave that on while you’re at work so nothing gets on it. You can take it off when you come home.”
    “Okay I love you. Call me after y’all leave the lawyer.”
    “I love you too.”
    I glance at my finger throughout the drive to work and can’t keep the smile off my face. Life can kiss my ass. Try all you want but I will be happy and I will not let anyone take that away from me.
    When I walk in the door I instantly feel bad. We are swamped. I run around the counter and throw on an apron then grab my order pad and pen.
    “Welcome to Sunshine’s what can I get you to drink?” I walk to a table and jump right in to work.
    There are three men sitting at the table. All of them look like they rolled around in dirt and then came to eat. Their hands are the only clean thing on them as they sit at the table and read the menu.
    “Tea,” they all say in unison.
    I nod my head and turn to get their drinks. They instantly turn back to work talk as soon as I walk off. When I make it back to the table to hand them their drinks they all smile and nod.
    “Do y’all know what you want to eat?”
    “The big burger special,” the first one says.
    He looks familiar. I can’t help but watch him closely as he looks around the table to the others as I write down their order.
    “Do I know you?” I ask him interrupting the last man taking his order.
    He lowers his head and looks to the table picking at the paper that came off his straw.
    “I was on Kipper’s, uh, crew. I helped here.”
    “Are you in with the ones who sent me papers for payment?”
    He looks up at me confused.
    “What papers? I left his crew as soon as we finished this job. Kipper was fucking crazy. Talking some crazy shit I wasn’t okay with.”
    “What crazy shit?”
    “Hurting you…”
    My heart hits the floor and I take a step back. He holds up his hands like he is surrendering and shakes his head.
    “You heard the part where I left his crew right?”
    “He did hurt me and he still is.”
    “I’m sorry, ma’am. I had nothing to do with whatever papers you’re talking about.”
    I shake my head and take a deep breath trying to calm my nerves. Once I can breathe normal I turn my attention back to the man whose order I missed.
    “I’m, uh, sorry about that. What would you like to eat?”
    “Uh,” he clears his throat and fixes the big framed glasses on his face, “big burger special.”
    After taking their orders, I turn it into the kitchen. When I slide my phone from my pocket my heart once again starts to race. It’s almost one. I hurry and dial Trevor’s number while I wait for their order. The place is full and I have a lot more work to do to help catch up but I want to tell him what just happened.
    “Hey?” I can hear the tattoo gun in the background and instantly feel bad for calling.
    “Sorry, I’ll call you back later.”
    “No, babe, what’s going on?”
    “There’s a guy here from Kippers old crew.”
    “WHAT?” he yells.
    I hold the phone away from my ear and smile at some of the customers as they turn their attention to me.
    “Listen, he said he knew nothing of what is going on. He left after they finished the job here. Kipper was talking crazy things and he left.”
    “Bastard. He better be glad he’s in jail or I would send him to fucking hell. I’ll call you when we leave the lawyers. Keep your eye on him, Sunshine. Call me if you need me. I love you.”
    “I love you too.”
    I hang up the phone and walk into the kitchen to grab my order. When I walk back to the table the man says nothing to me about Kipper. I have so many questions I want to ask him but I am not sure where to start with
