Lincoln cleared his throat and nodded. “Okay.” After he stepped into the room, he pushed the window open as far as it would go, letting the air circulate. Only then did Juna and Lydia come inside. Mr. Lowe and Marian were both out cold, sleeping deeply from the medication.
Lydia moved to Mr. Lowe's side and gently took his wrist to check his pulse. It was just as strong as before, surprisingly healthy for someone his age. His pulse told her he was in perfect shape, not a trace of sickness anywhere.
She glanced up at Lincoln. “Has your grandfather ever had any big illnesses? Or serious injuries?”
Lincoln paused, thinking back. “I remember my parents saying that, when he was young, he took a knife to the lower back while saving someone. He should have a scar from it.”
He carefully rolled the old man onto his side. Sure enough, there was a scar on his lower back.
“There’s a scar... so is he actually my grandpa?” Lincoln’s mind was spinning. Was it really him?
Lydia studied the scar, her brow furrowed. “When did your grandfather get that injury?”
Lincoln tried to recall. “All I know is what my parents told me. It happened decades ago.”
“Nothing more recent?”
He shook his head. “Not that I know of.”
Lydia’s tone was certain. “He’s not your grandfather.”
Lincoln stared at her, stunned. “What?”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
