Amara's face darkened. "Did Chase tell you the reason?"
Lyra felt as if she had fallen into the abyss. She knelt on the couch like a robot and the evening gown in her hand slid to the ground.
"Hazel Haynes! Hazel Haynes again…"
"Her? What did she do?"
Lyra suddenly became agitated and said, "Her daughter has leukemia!"
"Her daughter has leukemia. What does that have to do with you and Chase getting married?"
"Hazel told Chase that he is the girl's father!" Lyra's eyes suddenly widened, and tears flowed down her cheeks.
"What?" Amara was dumbfounded.
"So Chase is indeed the father of Hazel's three children!"
"I knew it. I knew she wouldn't let go of Chase so easily.
"I have also thought she will get back at me. I just didn't think she'd do it this way."
Lyra howled hysterically.
