Chapter 29

Zenia's POV

I couldn't listen in on them anymore. I bolted into the kitchen and stood between the woman I thought was the world's best mother and the man who walked away from his family for twenty one years.

"Zenia, you're home. Come here baby." My mother begun as she opened her arms and came towards me, gesturing for me to hug her.

I held up my palm to her.

"Stop." I blinked away the tears which was already forming. I backed away from her.

"How could you do such a terrible thing to me and Jasmine?"

"Zenia... What are you talking about?" She asked innocently.

"I heard every word mother! Or should I even call you a mother? You allowed Jasmine and I to think that dad walked away because he wanted to but you were the reason for all of this!

I might not even be his daughter?

Three thousand dollars every month mom? Three thousand dollars every month for eighteen years? That's six hundred and forty eight thousand dollars!
