Chapter 19 - ANOTHER SECRETClaire confronted Margaret.
The older woman went completely still.
"You knew?"
Margaret slowly sat down.
"There are things about Daniel's life that I never understood."
"What about my father?"
Margaret shook her head.
"I don't know what Daniel discovered."
Claire looked at the letter again.
There was no signature.
No explanation.
Only an address.
An old town several states away.
Arthur wanted to investigate immediately.
But Claire hesitated.
For the first time, she understood something important.
Their family had finally found peace.
She didn't want another mystery to destroy it.
Then Leo walked into the room.
He was older now.
He held a drawing in his hands.
"Mommy, look."
Claire smiled.
It was a picture of three people standing beneath a bright yellow sun.
Daniel.
Claire.
Leo.

She hugged him tightly.
Maybe some mysteries could wait.
