One late night, my terminally ill mother-in-law, Colette, called and revealed a shocking secret that would change everything.
I’ve been married to Dawson for ten years, and Colette never approved of me. She always had harsh words, but when she was diagnosed with cancer, everything shifted. One night, she called to confess that before marrying Dawson’s father, she had a daughter, Claire, whom she gave up. Colette begged me to help Claire, who now needed a kidney transplant.
Dawson overheard the call and was furious, claiming his mother was lying. He’d known about Claire but resented his mother’s past. Despite his anger, I was determined to find Claire.
When I met her, it was clear she was family, and I promised to help. Eventually, Dawson came around, and together we began the journey of reconnecting with Claire and saving her life.
