When they were younger, every time they were in the presence of Grandpa Flynn; his intimidating aura would pressure them into compliance, leading to an innate sense of dread and fear in everyone, whether it was himself, Evelyn or other Flynn family members.
Only those with incredible inner strength could stand before Grandpa Flynn without groveling, and in the entire Flynn family, only Malcolm and Reese had that kind of mettle.

If Evely wanted to pick a fight with Reese, she was undoubtedly in for a rude awakening like a lamb challenging a lion.
Evelyn had been bested by Reese several times; she wasn’t oblivious to it.
“Even so, I refuse to let her walk all over me. Besides, even if I’m not a blood relative of the Flynns, I was raised in their household and lived the good life. She’s just a country girl, she doesn’t measure up to me,” Evelyn insisted.
Vincent didn’t respond but inside, he was scoffing at Evelyn’s childish ego. To him, Evelyn’s sense of superiority was the only advantage she had. Without that, she was nothing more than an ant

A sly smile flickered in Evelyn’s eyes. “She thinks she’s so great? I’ll tarnish her reputation and then Malcolm will see that Reese is nothing but trash.”

“Suit yourself. If you need anything, just say the word.”
Thanks, Vincent.” Evelyn beamed, thrilled at the prospect of his assistance.
Meanwhile, Reese had just stepped out of the shower, blissfully unaware of Evelyn plotting against her.
But to her, knowing or not didn’t make much difference. She always need adversity with composure, believing that what was meant to happen couldn’t be avoided.
Humming a tune and in good spirits, she dried her hair.

With a teasing smile, he reached to embrace her, but Reese dodged nimbly.
Malcolm didn’t get upset, though; instead, he found humor in the moment.
Malcolm caught the glint of mischief still twinkling In Reese’s eyeshe smoothly pulled her into his embrace. His voice was deep and tinged with a breathy quality that was uniquely his, filling her senses in a way that was strangely not unwelcome.

She knew plenty about the birds and the bees, but now that Malcolm had brought it up, usually played the one being teased; it was time for a role reversal.
With a teasing lift of her brow, she whispered, “Are you sure you want to know?”
Without hesitation, Malcolm nodded emphatically..
“Yes, tell me.”
Reese wasn’t shy, believing in being bold when teasing a man. If you were too shy, what was the point?
“You were just saying how I had you pinned down, which means I’m taking the lead, right? Wouldn’t you, as my little hubby, need to sweet–talk me a bit first? Maybe pick up some skills?”
Surprise flicked across Malcolm’s handsome face for a moment as he listened to Reese utter these teasing words. Was this the woman who used to be all defense at the slightest touch?
Chuckling despite himself, he exclaimed, “What on earth are you saying?”

With an ironic smile, Reese said, “Why should I care what others think? Nowadays, girls should be independent. Why bother what a guy feels? When you guys are out having a good time, do you consider your wives? If you ask me, the world is just too harsh on women. Life is short; you should live freely and by your own rules
“What others think is just noise. It has nothing to do with me.”
Malcolm was utterly convinced by Reese, giving her a thumbs–up with admiration. “Is there anything you dear wife?”
