The room went dead silent . Everyone just stood there , frozen . Grayson blinked , his brain clearly short - circuiting . Then it hit him . " Dad , what the hell are you talking about ? I'm your son ! I'm Grayson ! " He frantically yanked up his sleeve , shoving his arm in Richard's face . ' Look - right here ! This scar ? From when I totaled Coach Bradley's Lexus in high school and you beat my ass with your belt ! See ? Still here ! " ' And these ! These two moles - I've had them since I was a kid ! Nobody knows about them except family ! " His desperation was almost pathetic . Then his face twisted with rage as he whipped around to glare at me . ' Did Rosalie feed you some bullshit story ? Is that what this is ? She turned you against me ? " 'Fine ! Let's do a DNA test right now ! Prove I'm your son ! Blood doesn't lie ! " But Richard didn't even blink . Margaret stared at the scars on her son's body , and something broke behind her eyes . Pain . Disappointment . You said you lost your memory . So how the hell do you suddenly remember all of this ? " Grayson stumbled over his words . I - I did lose my memory . Everything was gone . I just ... I just got it back . Just now . " Margaret had carried this man for nine months . Raised him . She knew when he was lying . And the disappointment in her eyes deepened . But Grayson was too far gone to notice . He kept digging his grave deeper . Mom , you have no idea how much I've missed you both . These three years ... I know you've been looking for me . It must've been so hard . " With that , his eyes turned red . Richard's tone was ice . " We weren't the ones who had it hard . " " Your wife - Rosalie - she's the one who suffered . Three years of searching , of sacrifice , of being blamed for your disappearance . If anyone deserves compensation , it's her ! " At the mention of my name , Grayson's face soured . 01:17 My " Dead ' Husband Chose His Mistress Over His Dving Mom ? ! Made Him Lose Both ! Chapter 5 Vanessa tugged on his sleeve , her eyes doing that wounded puppy thing she was so good at . That was all it took . Grayson's jaw set , and he turned on me right there in front of his own father . " Dad , you don't get it . These past three years , Vanessa's the one who took care of me . She's the woman I love . " He pulled Vanessa closer , his voice rising with self - righteous conviction . " She's carrying my child . The Ashford heir . Your grandson ! " ' And Rosalie ? She's so jealous , so vindictive , that she lied to your faces . Told you I wasn't Grayson just to keep us apart ! " His lies came so easily . Too easily . He didn't even notice his parents ' expressions darkening with every word . ' Mom , Dad , don't let her manipulate you- " CRACK . Richard's cane came down hard on Grayson's shoulder . Say that again ! " Tell me one more time - was it Rosalie keeping you from us , or was it YOU who didn't want to come back ?! " Chapter 6 Chapter 6
