She's an old woman who has lost her mind.”The nurse shook her head.“My name is Margaret Collins. I served your mother for fifteen years.

I attended his funeral!”“The man inside that coffin wasn't your father.”Daniel shook his head.“No. That's impossible.”Catherine approached him.“Daniel, please calm down.”He looked at her, his eyes filled with disbelief.“How am I supposed to calm down? My entire life has been built on lies!”Victoria lowered her head.“
