E I G H T Y - F O U R

The cell fell from her trembling hands, Kate slamming the drawer shut with a hard clunk. A harsh breath blew through the pages of her notepad, messy scribbles flickering before her eyes. The legs of the chair squeaked against the floorboards as she jerked away, her quivering hand covering her mouth. Colton’s booming voice spewed from the lounge-room, every furious sentence punctuated with a harsh ‘fuck’, Georgia’s name spitting out as if it were poison. Wiping the moisture from her top lip, she smoothed the fabric of her pants, clammy palms wiping against her abdomen before she tucked in her chair, fingers unwittingly digging into the cushioning as she stiffened. Letting out a shaky exhale, Kate slowly moved across the room, shutting the door with a soft click, momentarily resting against the inflexible wood.

“No, I’m not fucking around with this, Bill. Either she goes or I fucking go!”

The adrenaline coursing through her body

I think Colton is right in everything but sending her to Paloma. And now I’m really mad a Kate for hiding a vital information of whom was in the other side of the call. They can’t leave lose end about this and keeping the other one in the limbo

Totally understand why Colton is pissed at Kate. It's not that she didn't take him seriously about Georgia. She trusted him on not falling for Georgia advances. It's her job to help battered women. Colton needs to stop telling her to leave when he's angry like this cause one day she might not return

You know he keeps wanting her to leave knowing that there is somebody out there that can possibly hurt her. There is a second spare bedroom so why can't she stay in there or he can go there? Asking her to leave constantly is part of the problem.
