Chapter 159: Mandy's Reckless Plan

"If you men are done eating breakfast caveman-style, let's get to work!" Mandy said, glaring at her nephews and brother-in-laws huddled up around the old grill by the barn. They were tearing into hot, greasy barbecued meat straight off the skewers with their teeth and bare hands without regard for burning their mouth. Watching them, Mandy couldn't help but think her family's men were living proof that evolution sometimes took a few steps backward.

"Mandy, you should try some. It's too damn delicious," Danny said, licking the oil dripping down his hands.

"Junior, don't talk with your mouth full," Mandy scolded, raising an eyebrow at her nephew. Then she turned to Ace, crossing her arms. "Ace, clean yourself up. You're coming with me today."

Before Ace could reply, Dan interjected. "He's coming with me to the sheriff's office." His tone was firm, his jaw clenched. Dan still regretted not being there to face the Rockworths when it mattered, but he was determined to make up for it now—regardless of the consequences.

"Dan, I'm handling this," Mandy shot back, her voice sharp. She pointed a finger at him for emphasis. "You and Alwin need to get those pipelines laid from your ranch to the avocado orchards before those trenches dry up. Don't fight me on this one. I'll get you what you need."
