(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."

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."
