Their encounter left Lana pregnant, but she gave birth without being able to tell Matt about the baby. A year and a half later, Matt shocked Lana by showing up on her doorstep. In order to make the baby a legitimate Valente heir, he proposed a yearlong marriage. He said that if Lana refused, he’d sue her for embezzlement and take the child away. But Lana defended her innocence. How could he say such a cruel thing to her?
