The Lies He Told Me (Grace and Antonio)

Lana was surprised. She looked at my daughter in disbelief and caressed her face with trembling hands.

"Tell me. How old are you?"

My daughter gestured with her fingers and told Lana as I had told her. “Four."

Instantly, Lana's eyes dimmed. She mumbled, "You look so much like me."

The girl in front of her looked exactly like her when she was little.

My heart was pounding. Lana's expression told me something was wrong. Afraid that she might find out, I hurried to my daughter to take her away.

A five or six-year-

old boy suddenly called out, "Liar! Didn't you say you were five years old just now?"

My daughter looked up at me, her face flushed with embarrassment. "Mom, I forgot."

I closed my eyes. I had to face reality.

The good thing was that Antonio had a son, and his parents had a grandson. None of them could take my daughter away from me.

They asked Vivian who my daughter was. When she looked at me, nodded.

After the wedding, my daughter and I went to the Kaufmans' old

Even Antonio's dad smiled, which was a rare sight.

"She's my daughter. I won't let you keep her."

Sensing that I was determined, Lana displayed her tough side.

"She's our granddaughter. You can't take her with you. How much do you want? Just tell me."

The conversation was going nowhere. I grabbed my purse to leave.

Antonio stopped me at the door.
