Hidden Heiress: They Lied

Bernice slaps Odette across the face, her ring splitting Odette's lip.
Bernice

You worked her up until her heart gave out.

She slapped me. Her ring split my lip against my teeth.

Odette

I was holding her hand. You were late.

Synopsis

The Crays raised me, then made sure I knew I was lucky to hold their coats. When Suki accused me of stealing her prize, the whole room believed her. I didn't beg. I showed them the mistake in her winning paper. The one I wrote first. They think I have nothing. They are wrong. I have a gift for finding what doctors miss, and one old woman who loves me without a price. When Hattie's heart fails, the people who threw me away want me to stay quiet to keep her safe. Then my real family comes for me, with an uncle who acts like a wall. The people who called me trash want to buy me now. They called me a thief. Now they can call me the heir.
