Nineteen Thousand Dollars, a Forged Signature, and a Flight to the Dominican Republic
Now the whole puzzle clicked into place with sickening clarity.
Derek hadn’t forged that signature so he could raise Lily alone in Chesapeake and live off nineteen thousand dollars of our savings.
He had signed his own parental rights over to his mother, using my forged name, so Patricia could walk into family court with a completed transfer and legally replace me.
“Did Grandma tell you that on Tuesday?” I asked.
Lily didn’t answer.
