"Maybe" isn't a "yes". It means that you have significant doubts that ADF would go to your defense in a supposed time of need, yet you're not willing to commit to that truth due to your obvious emotional attachment.
Look, kid, you're being used. You've been used since day one, and the moment you stop being useful (which could be very, VERY soon) ADF will throw you under the bus. Same as John, same as his mother. You're not playing exactly to Phil's tune, and now you're expendable.
You can either accept that fact now or learn it the hard way when ADF throws you under the proverbial bus. We'd all prefer to see a crisis averted, but your fate is in your hands.
