"Hank!" Lilly cried out, her voice breaking, "Aurora is gone! I'm the one who's been by your side!" "What have you done for me? I've been the one supporting you," Hank laughed coldly, "Do you really think I don't know what you've tried to do to Judson?" Lilly and Malcolm fell silent under his accusation.

Hank's disdain grew, "Do you expectto clean up your mes up your mess? You're supppsed to pave the way for Judson." A smooth path was never a good thing at their level, after all.
