Penelope glared at Hackett, her patience worn thin:
"A misunderstanding? Hackett, after a lifetime together, am I really worth less to you than an illegitimate child?"
Hackett froze, "Illegitimate child? What are you talking about?"
"Yuna is your daughter with Zoe. Didn't know that, did you?"
"You... what are you saying? Don’t just make things up!" Hackett clutched his chest, staggering as though he might fall.
"We'll settle our issues later! You're so fond of Yuna, but do you have any idea what your daughter has been up to? Not only did she take Marguerite's place, she also..."
Before Penelope could finish, a childish voice called out from the distance.
"Mommy!"
Everyone turned toward the sound and saw Teresa running towards them, innocence written all over her face, with Hayes trailing behind.
Panting heavily, Teresa exclaimed:
"Mommy, why did you all come here? Hayes and I have been looking everywhere for you! You came to visit Granny’s grave without telling me! Mommy, I have something very important to tell you!"
In the midst of the chaos, Marguerite didn’t want Teresa adding to the confusion.
"Sweetie, we can talk about it at home. Take Hayes and wait for me in the parking lot."
But Teresa wasn’t having it. With all the adults gathered, this was the perfect time to reveal the truth!
