I grabbed his sleeve, tugging him back. "No need. Just drop me at the hospital. I need Max to give me a straight answer."

"Don't you ever suspect that all of this is Max's doing? He's the one deceiving you." When Richard said this, I wasn't shocked, nor did I believe him.

"Richard, what you're after is the entire Hilton family's acknowledgment?"

"Yes, I want the Hilton family, every last one of them, to recognize me. Why should Max be the only true heir? Those old fools in the Hilton family only see Max."

I remembered the ringleader, Kearney, barking the loudest. Was it all an act?

Yet, when Richard claimed Max wanted me dead, I couldn't bring myself to believe it.

"Why would Max want to kill me? Give me just one reason."
