She yearned to object but restrained herself, fearing that further words might accidently betray her.

She couldn't help but wonder if Brian had uncovered her father's secrets.

“Fear of exposure? What's he hiding?" Gail's confusion was palpable.

Brian retrieved his phone, presenting a message to Gail.

“Mrs. Moreno, I have good news for you."

Gail received the phone from Brian, her eyes wide with curiosity.

Before her lay a DNA test result.

It declared that Rosalynn shared a genetic link with Kyson.

Gail gazed at the paper, her mind a whirl of confusion.

“Brian, what is this?"

Brian's voice was even as he explained, "Your daughter, whom you mourned for twenty-two years, is in fact alive."

His words boomed like thunder in Gail's ears.

She looked at Brian, her grip on the phone tightening.

The news was overwhelming.

"Is my daughter truly alive?"

"Yes," Brian affirmed, gently urging Rosalynn forward.

"Can't you see? Rosa is your daughter. I sent hers and Kyson's hair for DNA testing. The report you're holding is the outcome."

Silence fell upon the room.

Faces bore a medley of emotions.

Lyndon's grin spread across his face, having anticipated the test's revelation.
