Chapter 24

• Everything began to make sense to Danica. She discerned that Loney was doing this because he thought she was Daniella. However, she didn't know what Daniella did to him. She struggled as to whether she should pretend to be Daniella or confess. Still, she feared that maybe Daniella would be in trouble if she exposed her. Therefore, she thought against confessing but how could she pretend to be Daniella? She didn't know so much about her sister except the things she had told her. Therefore, this was also not an option. She finally settled on one thing, to play neutral, which would mean telling a lie.
• She comforted herself with the fact that Loney would let her go after she delivers the child and would never know the truth. That way, she and her sister would both be safe. "I am not Daniella. My name is Danica."
• Loney froze. His mind went into deep thought. He couldn't piece it all together. He sensed that something formidable was going on. Yet he had no way of knowing exactly what it was. If he confirmed that Danica wasn't the one he woke up within the hotel, then he would know she was telling a lie but if she was, then he would believe everything she said. After all, he hadn't seen Daniella since he dropped out of college. 'Could it be true that the death certificate wasn't forged?' He decided to find out. "Were you the one I met at the hotel?"
