CHAPTER 3 — THE TRUTH
Daniel tracked Michael’s brother to an abandoned warehouse.
The man finally confessed everything.
Michael had never been involved in Sarah’s pregnancy. Before his death, however, he had secretly stored genetic material at a private clinic.
After Michael died, his brother became obsessed with exposing Sarah, believing she had abandoned Michael for Daniel.
He had stolen the hospital samples and manipulated the first DNA test to destroy their marriage.
Daniel returned home furious but conflicted.
Sarah was sitting beside the baby, crying.
“I should have told you everything,” she whispered. “But I never wanted to lose you.”
Daniel looked at the newborn.
For months, he had believed becoming a father meant sharing the same blood.
Now he understood something different.
Being a father was a choice.
He took the baby gently into his arms.
“I don't care whose blood runs through those veins,” he said. “That child is innocent.”
Sarah began sobbing.
Daniel didn't know whether their marriage would survive.
But he knew one thing for certain:
Their baby would never pay for the secrets of the adults who created this nightmare.
