The Day My Son Betrayed Me

Synopsis

I never imagined that on my birthday, my own son would hand me a chestnut cake—the one thing that could kill me. As my vision dimmed, I heard Andrew shout, furious, "Max, don't you know your mom is deathly allergic to chestnuts?" Max's small, childish voice came through, clear and cold. "Yeah, I know. But I want Susan to be my mom. Dad, you want that too, right?" "Even if I—" A crushing wave of suffocation cut him off, and I couldn't hear the rest. In the second before everything went black, I had only one thought: if I survived, I would never again be Andrew's wife or Max's mother.
