be invasive her voice trailed off as she glanced at Henry who was seated at the head of the table his usual Stern expression unchanging come on Naomi Elijah said brushing off her hesitation what's the harm it's just a fun family activity and it'll be good for Abigail's project he reached over and placed his hand over hers offering her a reassuring smile we've got nothing to hide Naomi looked at him for a moment her expression unreadable before noding slowly all right she said her voice barely above a whisper the children cheered as Elijah pulled out his
phone to order the DNA kits Henry gave a tight smile but said nothing sipping his coffee in silence a few weeks later the results arrived Abigail eagerly gathered everyone around the computer as Elijah logged into the website the room buzzed with excitement as they explored the reports ancestral Origins historical connections and distant relatives but as Elijah scrolled through the results his brow furrowed something didn't add up wait he said leaning closer to the screen this says I'm not a match to any of the kids as their biological father he laughed nervously shaking his head that's
obviously a mistake probably some kind of database error Naomi froze her hand tightening around the edge of the chair Henry's gaze flicked to Elijah his face calm but his jaw visibly clenched I'll reach out to the company Elijah said his voice firm but composed they probably just mixed up the data he stood from the table and kissed Naomi on the top of her head don't worry about it I'll get it sorted out over the next few days Elijah contacted the genealogy company pointing out the error in their report he explained the issue in detail confident
they'd come back with a correction but when their response arrived it left him reeling we've triple checked the results the company representative explained over the phone there's no mistake the children's biological father is someone other than you and the markers match another close relative within your submitted samples Elijah's heart sank he asked them to confirm again but the answer remained the same hanging up the phone he sat in stunned silence the only possible match within the submitted samples was his father Henry the weight of the Revelation crushed him his mind raised back to subtle moments
Henry's frequent visits the way Naomi had grown quiet whenever he was around her initial resistance to the DNA test it all began to make horrifying sense that evening Elijah returned home clutching the printed DNA results Naomi was in the living room folding laundry he threw the papers onto the table his face a mask of Fury and disbelief explain this he demanded his voice cold and SHP sharp Naomi's eyes darted to the papers then to Elijah what are you talking about she asked her voice trembling the DNA results Elijah snapped they're saying I'm not the father
of my children but they also say there's another match in our family care to explain that Naomi's face paled as she clutched the back of the chair for support there there must be a mistake she stammered that can't be right Elijah leaned closer his voice Rising don't lie to me Naomi I went back to the company they verified it there's no mistake so I'll ask you again explain this Naomi broke down tears streaming down her face as she sank into the chair through sobs she confessed to a dark secret she had kept buried for years
early in their marriage Henry had coerced her into a sexual relationship his influence and Authority made her feel powerless to resist and the abuse had continued for years all five of them Naomi whispered her voice breaking they're all his I didn't know how to stop it I didn't want to destroy you Elijah Elijah staggered back the room spinning around him the woman he loved the father he revered they had shattered his life in the most personal and devastating way imaginable he stormed out of the house his mind a storm of Rage betrayal and disbelief Elijah
