Chapter 385 A Slap From Lincoln

The car door slammed shut. The loud bang was like a blow to my heart.

“I’m sorry, Michael. I’m really sorry.”

My fingers were digging into my head. I hated myself for giving in to them and doing what they told me all the time.

I sobbed as I sat alone in the car. That was the day I had cried the most in my entire life.

Suddenly, my phone rang. I felt the irony as I stared at the word “Mom” on the screen.

No mother in the world would force their children to take the blame. I wanted to know how heartless they were.
