His expression became serious.
“Before the ceremony started, your father called me.”
My heart stopped.
My father had been silent for months.
After everything Chloe had done.
After every time my family chose appearances over me.
“What did he say?”
Liam looked toward the entrance.
And my breath caught.
Because standing there…
was my father.
The man who had missed my hospital appointments.
The man who had believed my mother’s version of everything.
The man who had not spoken to me since my diagnosis.
And he was holding something in his hands.
A small velvet box.
Liam lowered his voice.
“He said he found something your sister hid from you.”
I stared at my father walking toward us.
And suddenly…
I realized Chloe hiding my wig was never about my hair.
It was about a secret she had been protecting.
A secret that could change everything about why my family had treated me this way for years.
