“But don’t worry, Wiona. We’re going to find out the truth and get justice for your mom.”
“The Thompson family… Paige… If your mother’s death was more than just an accident, the Blue family won’t let them get away with it.”
Everyone nodded in agreement after Grandma Julia spoke.
“Wiona, our family usually keeps to ourselves, but that doesn’t mean we’re weak or easy to push around.”
“When we know the truth, we’ll make sure the people who hurt Aunt Luna pay for it.”
“Don’t worry, Wiona.”
“We’re all here for you.”
Wiona looked around at everyone’s faces, feeling a warmth spread through her chest. She hadn’t expected to find so much support when she came back. She hadn’t realized just how much the Blue family loved her mother. That feeling touched her even more deeply than the idea of exposing her uncle or the Thompson family.
Just as Wiona was feeling overwhelmed with emotion, Stephen, who had been quiet until now, turned to her.
“Child, this is really why you came back, isn’t it?”
“Reuniting with us just a way to find out what happened to your mother, right?”
Guilt tightened in Wiona’s chest. She lowered her head.
“Grandpa, Grandma… I know I ruined your birthday celebration and disturbed the peace in the family. You must be disappointed in me.”
Grandma Julia reached out and gently stroked her hair.
“Silly girl, if not for you, we’d still be in the dark. Your mother’s death was just called an accident. Even if we wanted to investigate, we never had any clues.”
“You tore away the lies your uncle hid behind all these years. You uncovered the Thompson family’s involvement. How could we blame you?”
Wiona tried to say more. “Grandma…”
But Grandma Julia just lifted her hand to stop her.
“No more, sweetheart. That’s enough.”
“Tonight, your grandpa and I have decided to announce who you are. We want everyone to know you’re Luna’s daughter.”
“But your outfit isn’t quite right for the party. Why don’t you go with Nicole and Pauline to get ready?”
“We’ll see you again soon, alright?”
Wiona’s heart skipped a beat.
She wasn’t nervous. She just hadn’t expected her grandparents to be in such a hurry to make everything public.
“But… is this okay? Tonight is your birthday celebration. Isn’t it the wrong time?”
Grandma Julia squeezed her hand, her palm warm and steady.
Her background and her past would become weapons for others to use against her.
She could handle it for herself.
But what about her kids?
Wiona didn’t want to be her children’s weakness.
Right now, nobody had publicly connected Wiona with W. But that wasn’t going to last.
Just being W and Vivian wasn’t enough.
But with the Blue family of Easton Heights backing her up… was that what her grandparents were thinking? They knew about her engagement, and now they wanted to lift her up with the Blue family name, giving her a solid foundation.
With the Blue family behind her, her status was even higher than the Morgan family’s. It would give her confidence, and shut up the people who didn’t matter.
Wiona finally understood how thoughtful her grandparents were.
Before she could say anything, Nicole stepped up, looping her arm through Wiona’s and smiling.
“Wiona, don’t worry.”
“With us here, we’ll make sure you look stunning. You’ll have all the grace of a true Blue family daughter.”
“Tonight, let’s show everyone just how amazing you can be.”
