Chapter 29 - THE FINAL SHOCK

Clara turned around slowly, staring at Ethan in complete, breathtaking shock as the document trembled in her hand.
"Ethan... why is your name on my father's global trust agreement from thirty years ago?!" Clara demanded.
Ethan backed away slightly, his handsome face turning pale as he stared at the paper in her hand.
"Clara... I swear on my life, I have never seen that document before in my entire existence!" Ethan declared urgently.
"My father never told me about a global trust! I thought he was just Eleanor's attorney!" Ethan pleaded frantically.
Clara looked down at the document again, reading the fine print below his name with sharp, analytical precision.
"In the event of Arthur Sterling's death, full control of the trust reverts to his legal son, Ethan Vance Sterling."
The room seemed to spin around Clara as the terrifying truth crashed into her mind like a tidal wave.
Ethan was not just her lawyer's son... Ethan was her half-brother.
