Grant leaned forward. “A week ago, you thought I’d be dead by Sunday. Three days ago, you ran an unauthorized DNA test on this baby. And yesterday, you got a lab result that sent you running straight to Barragan.”

Julian swallowed hard, his skin pale as ash.

Arthur Vance opened his leather folder. “The independent DNA verification confirms a direct familial match between Mr. Sterling and the infant. We are currently locating the child’s father to finalize the direct paternal lineage.”
