My Blood Chose A Stranger

Synopsis

The day the Sherman family found their long-lost biological son, the whole neighborhood was buzzing. The youngest boy, kidnapped by traffickers thirteen years ago, had somehow made it back alive. But when Victor Sherman stood on his own doorstep, he saw another boy sitting in the place that should have been his. The adopted child was flanked by his birth parents, his bowl mounded high with pot roast. "This is your brother, Mike Sherman." Their mother glanced up, her tone flat, as if introducing a distant cousin. "You two better get along." No one rose to greet him. No one offered to take Victor's bag. The adopted son smiled at him. "Victor, you're back? Great, go get me a glass of water." From that day on, Victor realized that he was nothing but an outsider in this family.
