My millionaire parents abandoned me pregnant at 19 — 7 years later, they begged me for forgiveness.
Then a month ago, I got a package.
Elia is six now. She has my eyes and a laugh that makes strangers smile. She is the best thing that ever came out of the worst night of my life.
Then a month ago, I got a package.
Inside was a note.
“You deserve to know the truth.”
Under it was a birth certificate.
There was one more thing in the envelope.
My mother’s name.
A son.
Older than me by four years.
My mother had another child. A son she never told me about. A son she had abandoned too.
