The Identity Of His Daughter

Brooke was the first one to notice her husband walk into the room, and the only one whom he cared to see. Unfortunately, when he heard his uncle accusing his wife, he couldn't control his temper.

Edward reflexively reached into his back pocket for his cigarette, but immediately decided against it. The last thing he wanted to do was to provoke his father.

"Son!" Rosalind rushed over to Thane and tried to hug him, but he resisted her touch.

"Come on Brooke, we're leaving." Thane announced.

His grandfather frowned, "Thane, I raised you better. Come here-"

He cut his grandfather off. "I heard about what you did to my wife when I wasn't around. My lawyer will take it up with you."

Zachiel's jaw lowered, "You're suing your grandfather?" he looked to Brooke, "Over this vegetable?!"

Julian hissed, "Hey, watch your words you old fart. Just because you have some money sitting somewhere doesn't give you the right to speak like a fool."
