I saw the flash of confusion that crossed Derek's eyes as he withdrew his hands from my face. I felt the exact same confusion. What is this guy talking about?
"Lies." Derek shook his head, but for a moment he looked at me as though I might have been a wholly different person. Desperation began eating at me. I knew how much he hated the Maslens.
"My mother's name is Camilla Claremont," I told him trying to stay calm. "She's been in an insane asylum for the majority of the past decade. You know this. Your father's bluffing, Derek."
"I'm not bluffing. I can prove everything," Gregor said confidently. "I have all the background checks to prove it. Ingrid Maslen was once Camilla Claremont, wife of Aiden Claremont. They only have one daughter—your pretty little redhead right there."
I shook my head. "No. It's not true. Ingrid Maslen is not my mother."
