Chapter 85- The threat

Stacy’s outburst stunned Abigail. She opened her mouth to say something, but Stacy didn’t give her the time to speak, “He is hiding him somewhere and not allowing him to come out. He never acknowledged him, only because of his beloved son Xander, your husband.”

Stacy let out a bitter chuckle, “He also hid Xander for twenty long years. Don’t you know that?”

She sneered, “And he said that he hid Xander for his safety. Ridiculous... in this country, no one dares offend the Reid family. From where does his enemy come? Humph... I've kept my mouth shut all these years just because of the safety of my grandson. But I will not keep silent anymore. I will tell everyone what he did to my daughter back then and expose him to the public.”

Stacy got up to leave soon after she finished speaking, but Abigail stopped her, “Wait... you... don't do that. I'll... I'll try to get you the money you want. Just give me some time.”
