## Chapter 12 — The Truth About Grace's Real Father
Richard continued backing toward the rear exit.
Then Sophia suddenly spoke.
"Grace deserves the truth."
Richard shouted,
"Shut up!"
But Sophia ignored him.
She looked only at Damian.
"Grace..."
"...isn't his daughter."
The room froze.
Richard's face instantly changed.
"Liar!"
Sophia continued.
"When I disappeared..."
"I was already pregnant."
Damian stared at her.
His breathing stopped.
Sophia nodded slowly.
"Grace is yours."
Silence swallowed the room.
Damian couldn't speak.
He remembered the timing.
Their engagement.
Sophia's disappearance.
Everything suddenly fit together.
Richard had kidnapped Sophia before she could tell him.
He had raised Grace as his own...
Only to control Sophia.
Richard screamed,
"She belongs to me!"
Damian finally spoke.
"No."
"You stole twenty-one years."
"But you'll never steal another day."
