Three years ago, she caught Alaric and Georgia in a moment of naked truth, tangled in sheets together. It was clear they had a connection.

So, they had a child together. Wasn't that the natural progression of things?

Yet, she clung to a sliver of hope, fooling herself into believing the child in Georgia's arms wasn't Alaric's.

Was she in denial about Georgia, or was she still harboring fantasies about Alaric?

"Hertha, listen to me, the only child I acknowledge is ours..." Alaric pleaded, desperate to get his point across.

"Shut up!" Hertha snapped, her voice sharp as she glared at Alaric, teeth clenched in anger and anxiety. "Alaric, I will never have a child with you in this lifetime!"

With that, she shot Georgia a look and stormed off.

Alaric, that jerk, had the audacity to bring up their child in front of Georgia! Didn't he realize that was a secret she intended to keep buried?

If Georgia found out about her child with Alaric, she would undoubtedly spread the word to the Falconer family. And knowing the Falconers, they would stop at nothing to take her child away from her!

Angelina had made it crystal clear back then. Beatrice and Remington were so kind to her, merely because they wanted her to bear Alaric's children. As for the mother's place in the Falconer household, that was of no concern to them!
