It was almost an hour later before Cookie could drive back to the house. To her surprise, Jamie’s car was in the garage. She drew in a shaky breath and stared at her puffy eyes through the rearview mirror. Her heart was palpitating and she wasn’t sure she was ready to face him, confront him, and get the truth out of him. What if he confesses that he truly married her out of pity? Considering he already has a child, what if he says he can’t be with her anymore since he has Julia and may not even need to be married? Although she trusted the man, she still couldn’t help worrying and coming up with different self-damaging thoughts. She sat outside for a few minutes before her phone rang and it was Jamie calling. She thought of answering the call but she let it go to voicemail as she finally gathered the nerves to get out of the car and head into the house.

That night, Jamie sat in his home office, still pondering on everything Sylvia had confided in him. He couldn’t believe she was the same woman that had committed such evil acts. The same woman that came off as a saint to guilt trip him into forgiving her and accepting her as his biological mother. But it turned out she only needed him to finalize her revenge plans.It hurt him deeply to realize the truth that Sylvia was only using him.

Slowly, his gaze traveled through the page as he read the document. It stated that Benjamin David

According to Jamie’s plan, they all assembled at Ryan’s family home in New York the next day, to reveal Sylvia’s decades-old secret. Before then, he called Sylvia the previous night after his meeting with Ryan, to set up a meeting with her in Texas, just to keep her away from New York during the meeting, as a means of evading her. During his call, he assured her he was ready to take on the task and he made her believe he was still annoyed at how Ryan had treated him in the past. It was believable enough to Sylvia and she praised him for finally manning up to do the right thing.Disregarding that they were still on call, she went about spewing her hate for the Davidson’s and how she’d gotten Clifford to sign the documents that would give up his properties and business empire to Jamie, all in the name of partnering with him. She even shared a soft copy of the document to him after the call and asked him to sign it through electronic means but Jamie refused. He stated that they’d need a
