"I would rather her adoptive parents were the ones who swapped her than face this truth."
Mrs. Sutton couldn't hold back any longer, her eyes turned red.
Even if it was just swapping, they actually abandoned their biological daughter; to call The Abbotts malicious would be an understatement.
When they brought Thea Shaw home, they had already made inquiries; her adoptive mother, Lauren Blair, had picked her up at her workplace back then, which wasn't in Aethelgard.
Apparently, the child was left outside their dorm, crying out of hunger. With no surveillance at the time, nobody knew who had abandoned the baby, and the police couldn't manage it, suggesting to take her to the welfare center.
Lauren Blair saw the child was fair and tender, and couldn't bear to leave her, so she took the child away.
With a child, she couldn't work, so she had to resign and take the child back to her hometown.
