Chapter 1 A False Identity

It was hot in Melcester in June. The tarmac was shrouded in a veil of heat in the scorching sun, so no one was willing to come outdoor.

Myrna Stark dragged her packed luggage out of the

Three months ago, she accidentally found out that her boyfriend was having an affair with Stephanie, who was also dating someone else.

Myrna was so angry that she exposed it. Then she was told that she wasn't a true member of the Stark family. They took her back from an orphanage.
