He Accused Me Of Stealing But I Heard The Truth Chapter 38
The document spread like wildfire online.
People screenshotted the signature and the amount, claiming I had taken the money six years ago and was only back because it wasn’t enough.
Maisie’s teacher called me during her lunch break.
“Some of the children saw the news on their parents’ phones. They asked Maisie if she lied to move into a rich person’s house. She didn’t cry, but she put her lunch away.”
When I got to the school, Maisie was sitting on a cot in the nurse’s office, her lunchbox unopened beside her.
“Mommy, did Derek buy our apartment?”
“No.”
“What about my medicine?”
“Your father is paying for his share of your care. That isn’t a gift to us.”
She lowered her head and twisted the strap of her backpack.
“They said you signed it. That you took the money.”
I crouched down in front of her.
“Someone put Mommy’s name on a paper Mommy never saw. The lawyers are going to tell the judge the truth.”
“Will the judge believe you?”
“We have the bank records. That account was never used.”
She thought for a moment, then handed me her lunchbox.
“Then you eat with me.”
We sat together in the nurse’s office and split her peanut butter sandwich in half.
That afternoon, I took the acknowledgment form to my lawyer’s office.
She put it on one screen and the document recovered from Weston Group’s system on another.
The two signatures were a perfect match.
