But Simon knew that pendant. Elsa had always tied it with that sred string. The moment he saw her fingers
brush against it, his mind betrayed him, dragging him back to the ruins of his childhood-back to the
warmth of clinging to Lizzy, to her light, to her sunshine. No matter her faults, in his heart she had always been
the best girl in the world. He couldn't bear to see her suffer.
Tearing his gaze from the string, his jaw tightened as though it might break. He ground out his command at Lily.
“Apologize!”

Before the weight of his order could settle, the butler stepped forward holding a tablet.
James didn’t even glance at it. His voice was calm, but edged with steel. “Show him. Let him see exactly what
kind of filth his precious Elsa really is.”
“Yes, sir.”
The butler inclined his head respectfully, then walked directly to Simon and held the screen before him.

Simon frowned in confusion, his phoenix-like eyes mirroring James's, clouded with suspicion.
“Please watch,” the butler said evenly.

The footage was crystal clear. He saw Lily at the sink, quietly washing her hands.
Then Elsa appeared.
The high resolution left nothing to doubt-the flicker of malice in her gaze, the way she lightened her steps to
avoid making noise, her careful angle to stay out of the mirror’s reflection. She crept closer, closer, until she
stood directly behind Lily.
Her lips curved with poisonous triumph. Convinced Lily had no chance of escape, certain the child in her belly
would be lost, she raised her hand and shoved with all her strength.
Simon's heart jolted. Though Lily stood before him now, unharmed, watching that moment unfold on the screen
still gripped him with icy dread.
But Lily had sensed danger. She sidestepped swiftly,

Elsa, caught off balance by her own force, slammed into the sink herself, doubled over in agony. Lily had turned,
seized her hair, and dealt her two perfectly even slaps.
The video cut out.
Simon stood frozen, as if his soul had been ripped from his body.
He had already seen Elsa disgrace herself once before, in the theater. It had devastated him then, overturning
everything he thought he knew. But afterward she had shown remorse, again and again. She had even tried to

Yes—people rarely changed. But she was Lizzy. His Lizzy. The girl who had given him warmth when he needed it
most. If she said she would change, he had wanted to believe her.
But all of it-her remorse, her vows, her tears-had been lies.
She had schemed again. She had tried to kill Lily's child.
And he... he had been her fool. Again.

His chest heaved with shock and agony, disbelief burning through him like acid.
James's voice cut across his thoughts like a blade. “Simon. Apologize to Lily.”
Mary’s words followed sharp and merciless. “Immediately. Apologize to Lily!”
Her fury trembled through her voice. “I should get a paternity test. How could I, Mary, have given birth to such
an idiot?”
“Jamie, tomorrow you're going with me. We're testing him too!”
Simon's resemblance to Jamie was undeniable, but Mary's rage left no room for reason.
“He's definitely your son, not mine,”
she snapped. “I'll do the ne myself.

“You-!"
Jamie nearly choked on his frustration. He had never touched another woman in his life-his body, his heart, all of
it belonged to Mary.
