Amelia got up and left the office, I tried to go after her, but mom grabbed my arm, making me stop. I shook her arm off of me as I pushed past Trey towards my liquor cabinet in my office. I grabbed the bottle of whiskey I had been saving for a special moment. I popped the lid off the bottle and took a giant swing. The warm amber liquid burned as it slid down my throat. I placed the bottle on the desk before strolling around to stare out the window. I need to set up a meeting with Ben and find out what he wants. Maybe I need to suck up to Jessica and get the information from her. f**k, I don’t know what to do. I ran my hand through my hair and down my face, groaning. I rubbed my hand over my face a few times, trying to keep myself from destroying something with my mom around.
