crying.
“I’m sorry you had to believe otherwise.”
Melissa looked exhausted.
“But Harold Vance believes Ava is the only beneficiary standing between him and the Grant trust.”
She held up documents.
“He’s wrong.”
Dad leaned forward.
Melissa smiled faintly.
“There are two.”
She said Rachel’s name.
Rachel stared at the screen.
“You are my niece.”
Rachel sobbed.
Melissa continued.
“And if Samuel is alive, tell him I kept my promise.”
“What promise?” Rachel whispered.
Melissa answered as though she could hear her.
“I kept his daughter safe.”
Rachel looked confused.
Then Calvin slowly turned toward her.
“Oh my God.”
“What?”
He looked at Dad.
“You said Samuel pulled Rachel from the car.”
“Yes.”
“Who performed the reconstruction?”
Dad hesitated.
Calvin’s face changed.
“No.”
I grabbed the desk.
“What?”
Calvin stared at Rachel.
“Thomas, the woman at the clinic…”
He swallowed.
“She isn’t Rachel either.”
