Chapter 2: The Question That Stopped the Room
Part 2 ⬇️
The doctor set the chart down and looked directly at Preston.
"Mr.
Hale, are you listed as the biological father on any prior medical records for Ms.
Foster?"
Preston frowned.
"What kind of question is that?"
"A necessary one," she said quietly.
Brielle's face had gone completely still.
Preston's mother leaned forward.
"What exactly are you saying?"
The doctor didn't flinch.
"Ms.
Foster's file shows a procedure from fourteen months ago that would make a natural conception…
very unlikely without medical assistance.
There's no record of any such treatment here."
The room went cold.
Preston turned slowly toward Brielle.
"What procedure?"
Brielle said nothing.
"Brielle." His voice dropped.
"What is she talking about?"
Still nothing.
Then Preston's father stood up from his chair.
"Son." His voice was low and careful.
"I think you need to ask her something else first."
Preston stared at the man he had trusted his whole life.
"Ask her," his father said again.
"Ask her whose baby this actually is."
Brielle finally looked up.
And the expression on her face was not the one of a woman who had been wrongly accused.

What Brielle said next — and what Preston found on her phone — shattered everything he thought he knew.
