Return of the Abandoned
Right there, in front of all of them, he had shoved a baby into my arms and scolded me, accusing me of giving birth and refusing to take responsibility.
I learned the baby, Caleb Sawyer, belonged to my younger sister. My parents begged me to keep him. Since I had no plans to marry, I had agreed.
Later, I hated myself endlessly for making that choice.
Now, hearing the knocks again, a chill ran through me. I shot upright, hurried to the door, and pulled it open.
A familiar face stood there.
"Lynn Sawyer, you gave birth to a child and abandoned him. You know child abandonment is a crime."
