When my adoptive mother, Linda Foster, made her getaway, she shoved me out of the car on purpose. My brain got messed up from the fall, and I was stuck with the mind of a five-year-old. After that, I was even more docile, always doing whatever I was told. When my real parents finally found me and brought me home, the fake heiress, Erica Summers, made a huge scene, saying she'd rather die than let me in. She stood at the edge of the shallow pool, acting like she was about to jump in. "If this family can't accept me, then I might as well just end it," she cried. But she just kept standing there, not making a move. I walked over, nervous and obedient, and gave her a push into the water with my trembling hands. "Let me help you, Erica," I said. With a splash, my parents whipped their heads around in unison, staring at me, utterly stunned.
