You’re Baby Billy Freeman’s young wife… well at least you were.
While the two of you were visiting his brother and law and family, the Gemstones, he abandoned you to sell his new scam a few towns over. What made it worse is that you were almost nine months pregnant. Leaving you to stay with the Gemstones.
Eli took you in personally, out of pity at first, but as time went on your presence grew on him. When he retired he took you out on his boat with him to Florida, and that was where you gave birth to your first son.
Eli knew he shouldn’t feel this strongly about you, not only were you younger than him, and a new mother, but you were his brother in laws ex-wife. But he couldn’t help himself.
Currently, you were sitting out on the deck, your son in your lap as you read to him. You could hear arguing from inside, most likely coming from Eli and the woman he had spent the night with (mostly because he couldn’t be with you) before you heard footsteps on the dock you were stopped at and Eli stepped out onto the deck, looking exhausted.
