After Ryan has successfully taken Genevieve out of the place, Rhett is still frozen in his place. He still finds it hard to believe that the bastard who took the one thing important to him was his bride's father.
"Did you know about it?" He asked Ryan who was beside him without looking at him.
Ryan was hurt by his words but still answered anyway, "I don't know anything about it. I bet the bastard hides that very well from the public eye and I believe not everyone knows about this."
No one knows about this but them, Rhett couldn't help but think if Mr. Roman also knew about it. He didn't believe any man would be that calm to know the daughter he had been raising for years wasn't his. He would have made it public, disgraced Elisha, and then drive them both from his house. But then that's the exact thing he has done now but Rhett wasn't going to associate what he'd just found out with that.
