Of course, she didn’t. “If it has to do with the business, I want to hear it, too, since I’m a silent partner.”

Dayne snorted. “You arefarfrom silent.”

Dylan shook his head. “Okay, spill. I have important things to do.”

“Are you saying I’m not important?”

“If that’s what you heard…”

“I think I’m broken,” Dayne reluctantly confessed.

“You’re only figuring this outnow?” Dani snort-laughed. “We’ve known it since you were two.”

“You weren’t even born yet when Dyl Weed and I were two.”

Dani grinned and shrugged. “Mom said you are the way you are due to a lack of oxygen to your brain.”

“Then it’s Dylan’s fault. He hogged the womb.”

Dylan clicked his tongue. “I should’ve choked you with the umbilical cord. What a wasted opportunity.”

“I’m telling Mom.”

One side of Dylan’s mouth pulled up. “She’d agree with me.”

“Boy, Ford and Erin have really changed you. Though, despite the effort, you’re still not funny.”

“What do you want, Dayne? Is it important? Or are you in here to waste my time?”

“And mine,” Dani added.

“You could leave at any time, sis,” Dayne suggested. “No one’s making you stay.”

She tapped a finger against her bottom lip. “I don’t know. You look a little green around the gills. Is it an STD? Did you knock up one of the guests and need to take a paternity test?”

Dylan’s expression turned from amused to serious in a flash. “You better not be spreading shit around this resort. And if you?—”

“I didn’t!” exploded from Dayne. “Don’t listen to her. She’s only jealous she’s not getting laid.”

Dani’s expression twisted. “How do you know?”

“We all live in the same house.”

“Who says I can only have sex in the house? Why would I want to bring anyone home and risk them meeting you two boneheads?”

“Areyou banging someone?” Dayne asked.

Dani rolled her hazel eyes. “Like I would tell you.”

Dylan leaned back in his office chair and sighed. “Good. I don’t need to hear whether our baby sister is or isn’t having sex.” His gaze landed back on Dayne. “Why are you broken?”

Dayne’s eyes flicked from Dylan to Dani and back toDylan. Did he really want to reveal what he was about to reveal with his sister in the same room?

Would it matter? She’d probably find out eventually, anyway. It was difficult to hide anything from his siblings when they all lived in the same residence.

For now, anyway. Once Ford finished building their house along the back of the three-hundred acres, his brother, Ford, and Erin would be moving out of the farmhouse.

Dayne shook his thoughts free when Dylan shouted his name.
