Emma stood outside the door, her blood running cold as the truth shattered her reality. She had never dreamed that Henry was actually the child of David and Allison!

Her mind raced, trying to piece everything together. David’s strange behavior, his nervousness, and his anger about Henry getting hurt now made sense.

She thought that as long as she explained the situation clearly, David would believe her, but it was so obvious that he was clearly venting his emotions on her because he loves his son so much, hence her explanation wasn't important to him at all.

A pang of sadness and anger immediately surged through Emma. How dare David lie to her and accuse her so sanctimoniously? She clenched her fists, her body trembling with the urge to storm in and slap everyone in that room.

But as her hand subconsciously touched her belly, the reality of the situation sank in. What about her child? She didn’t want her baby to grow up without a father. If she told David about the pregnancy, would

    “What cryptic mail?” Christian asked. “I didn’t send you any mail.”David turned his head, studying the puzzled look on Christian’s face.The man’s expression wasn’t forced—it was the kind of confusion that couldn’t be faked. It meant Christian wasn’t lying.David exhaled and looked away. “I see,” he said quietly.There was no point pressing further if Christian genuinely didn’t know.Instead, he let his gaze drift forward to where the kids were playing with his bubble toy with Claire.Christian, still waiting for David to explain more about the “cryptic mail,” kept silent when no explanation came from him. He eventually followed David’s gaze toward the playground. Neither man spoke for several seconds.David broke the silence first. Without looking at Christian, he asked, “Tell me again… whose child is Henry?”Christian’s eyes narrowed slightly. He drew in a slow breath and let it out. “He’s my late brother’s son,” Christian said at last. “Nathaniel.”David turned to look at him now,

    Emma’s eyes widened when she saw blood running down David’s hand.She pushed her chair back and stood, moving toward him without a second thought.“David—”But before she could even reach for the napkin on the table, his other hand shot out and caught her wrist. His hold wasn’t rough, but it was firm enough to make her stop.He looked up at her, his gaze deep and sharp.“In your eyes,” he said slowly, “I may be an incompetent father… but Claire is my child. And I won’t let you take her away from me again.”Emma froze.“She’s my daughter too,” he went on. “She needs to be close to me. Not just for short visits or whatever you call it.”Emma’s lips parted slightly, but she didn’t speak.David’s eyes narrowed. “ And If you’re worried about Allison… or Henry… don’t be. Allison, Isabel, or any other woman—” his jaw tightened “—will never appear in front of you or cause any trouble again.”At the mention of Allison’s name, a sharp shift happened in the air. David's gaze flickered briefly, h

    “So,” David began, his gaze locked on her, “is that it? Is that the only reason you refused to let me see my child? That was five years ago, Emma! I made mistakes in the past and said things I shouldn't have said… how could you still hold on to those words?”Emma blinked, her posture stiffening. Before she could reply, David reached for a stack of documents beside him and placed them on the table.“Here,” he said coldly. “All of it. Everything you and Christian did to prevent me from knowing my daughter. I hope you’re happy, Emma. I lost five golden years with my daughter… I hope you're satisfied!”The words pierced Emma’s composure. Something inside her suddenly snapped as she threw the documents to the ground without even looking at them.“You don’t have the right to yell at me or act as if all this is my fault, David!” she fired back. “What? If I hadn’t agreed to come back to New York for your son's surgery… would you have even known?!”Her voice rose with every sentence.“Emma did

    Emma stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself. She smoothed her blouse and took a deep breath.For days now, she had been preparing herself for this moment — a face-to-face conversation with David about Claire. No more sidestepping. No more waiting for the “right time.”This talk had been pushed aside too many times already. Ever since Allison and Isabel’s case had consumed everyone’s attention, it had been impossible to focus on anything else. Allison was still on the police’s wanted list, her face printed in newspapers and shown on late-night news reports. Isabel, on the other hand, had been sentenced to prison for attempted murder.Gradually, the chaos had faded into the background. Life was beginning to stitch itself back together. And then came the phone call from David: “We need to talk.”Emma had known right away.Before heading to meet David, she decided to stop at the hospital. Claire’s medication was running low, and Emma preferred picking it up herself. She also wan

    Allison stirred awake on the thin, lumpy mattress. Her body shifted with a sluggish heaviness, every joint stiff, every muscle aching. She winced at the faint crack in her neck when she tried to move. It was the slow creaking of the door that pulled her from sleep.Her eyes slowly opened, squinting at the sudden stream of light spilling in from the doorway. She blinked several times, trying to adjust to the light. It had been days — maybe weeks — since anyone had opened that door.All the small amount of food and water she got each day was pushed through the tiny slot in the door, which only opened for a few seconds before shutting again.Her heart gave a nervous thump.Someone stepped in.The figure was tall, broad-shouldered, and cloaked in shadow. But as he moved forward, the faint light from the door revealed something chilling — a mask covered his face, leaving only his eyes, nose, and mouth exposed.Allison’s breath hitched. This wasn’t one of the usual guards. She had never see

    The hall had fallen into a hush.The murmurs, the clicking of cameras, the shifting of chairs—everything stilled as every head turned toward the doorway.Isabel stood there, her hands clenched tightly by her sides, eyes glistening with tears. Her sharp and fierce gaze was fixed on David at the podium.David didn’t speak right away. He studied her in silence, his jaw set, his face giving nothing away.It was Isabel who broke it.“Tell me; how do you explain,” she repeated, “that a mother left her only child—her sick child she loved with all her heart, a boy who had suffered from a congenital heart condition—and fled the country? Is that even possible?”The moment Isabel had found out about David’s press interview, she knew she couldn’t stay away. The firestorm she had stirred online—those carefully timed posts, the emotional plea to the public—was finally paying off. She had forced him to finally come out and speak.And yet, as she stood there, watching him smear Allison’s name in fron
