Dear Isabella,

Sadly for you, Granny Evie, Carlisle, and Esme, Edward is not going home to Forks from rehab. The judge determined that Senior was well enough to have Junior home. Nobody but Senior is happy about this.

Junior has been home for about two weeks and he seems happy. Misses you and his Forks family. But seems to be handling things well, which we are grateful for. He and Senior are staying in Seattle as his law practice is there and they accepted him as a partner. which is great for them. Senior has a full-time live-in nanny that seems to be more than just a nanny from what I have heard from different sources. Heidi Masters is a young woman with a child who looks just like Junior and Senior. Hair, eyes, nose, and everything. Senior "adopted" this little girl named Eden Hadley. Odd name if you ask me. I'd bet my next check that girl is Junior's half-sister and Senior's daughter. Everyone that sees her agrees. It makes me really worried about Junior. There is nothing that we can do though. Unless Senior or Heidi starts doing bad things to Junior and he says something, he is stuck there in Seattle.

He has missed a ton of school because of the accident and has been homeschooling with a brilliant husband and wife couple who tutor named Eleazar and Carmen Denali. What makes this ideal is that they are friends of both Carlisle and mine who happen to live in Seattle proper. They love Edward and you and are your biggest fans besides the family supporters. They think Junior would do better with Carlisle and Esme. And with Eden now in the picture, they are trying to find a way to get both children out if it gets worse for them. So far, the closest that they have gotten as abuse, is the missing school, which is excused and does not help us. We are being patient and Junior and Eden will come to Forks. Worry not my Isabella. We will get them home to Forks. Well, if Eden is related to Junior.

A side note: I am happy to report that you and your Edward are not married yet. You came to your senses and realized that you should both be eighteen. I still have a few years with my princess! That makes me happy!

I love you more than you will ever know.

Love-

Daddy
