Forbidden Passion

Chapter 543 You Saved Me Again

Phoebe caught the shift in Theodore's face. She bent down, scooped up the phone; the call was already over. She handed it back to him.

"Screen's busted. You need a new one."

Theodore just stared at Phoebe, totally zoned out. The paternity test results hit him like a truck. Even though he tried to brace himself, it was still a lot to take in.

Phoebe waved a hand in front of his face. "Yo, what's up? Why do you look like that?"

"The paternity test... Grace is my biological sister." Theodore still felt like he was in some weird dream.

If Grace was his real sister, then what about Madison?

Phoebe was shocked too. She had her suspicions, but now it was official.

Madison wasn't Brandon and Taylor's real daughter. This news was gonna mess everyone up.

She gripped her phone. "So, what's the plan now?"

Theodore reached for his smokes but remembered they were in a hospital. No smoking allowed. He pulled his hand back, looking annoyed. "Grace is a Reynolds. We gotta bring her back to the family." "And Madison?" Phoebe cut straight to the point.

Theodore's face darkened. He stared hard at Phoebe. "Madison's my sister. Blood or not, that doesn't change."

Phoebe caught the edge in his voice and knew he got her wrong. She didn't bother explaining. "Got it."

She leaned over, grabbed his hand, and put the phone in his palm. "I'm gonna check on Grace."
