(Winona)

I know exactly what to say. I've gone over this conversation a million times in my head.

"Are you sure? If Jayden knows about his daughter, then maybe he wants me and his first born heir back. in his life. That's if she is his daughter, which she isn't.)

Phillip pipes up again, "And I must say, I do love Winona and I'll always be there for Abby as her father, but I wouldn't stand in the way of Jayden being with his own flesh and blood. What kind of monster would do that? Jayden would be sure to hate anyone if he found but they did that to him."

"You are both playing a dangerous game!" She clearly knows she's painted herself into a corner and I now have the upper hand. "So you're saying if Jayden has another child, you won't be claiming any of the billions for your daughter as the rightful heir, if she was?"

Interesting. Jayden having more kids hasn't come up before. What are they up to? I bet Judy has been trying to make Ashlyn get pregnant with Jayden as fast as she can.

"No. If she was Jayden's daughter, I'd be keeping her as far away from all that as possible. You people make me sick. I'd rather she has a proper life as a child not one where she's groomed to do what you want."

"Whatever. You sound so self-righteous: But you aren't Miss Perfect, are you?"

I shrug and take Phillip's hand and choose to ignore that comment. "And if you don't withdraw whatever threat you made to Johnstone Academy, I'll tell him Abby is his daughter and that you've known all along. Then you can spend your time and money proving she isn't." She smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "You're smart, I can give you that, you and your little puppet here. But none of this is over. Not by a long shot. I'll see you permanently out of Jayden's life one way or another."
