Part 2: My son h.i.t me 30 times in front of his wife… so the next morning, while he sat in his office, I sold the house he thought was his.

**GLORIA, YOUR FAMILY HAS BEEN LYING TO YOU FOR FORTY-FOUR YEARS.**

Another message appeared.

**BUT THE BABY SWITCH ISN'T THE REASON WE NEEDED THE COMPANY.**

My heart began pounding.

Then a final photograph arrived.

It showed an old hospital document.

Two newborn boys.

Two mothers.

Two identification numbers.

And beneath the records was a handwritten note.

**THIRD INFANT — FEMALE — TRANSFERRED WITHOUT MATERNAL CONSENT.**

I stared at it.

A third infant?

A girl?

My hands began trembling.

Then an unfamiliar woman's voice came through a new call.

"Mrs. Sutter?"

I couldn't breathe.

"Who is this?"

A pause.

"My name is Elizabeth."

My heartbeat thundered.

"And forty-four years ago, someone took me from that hospital."

I gripped the phone.

"What?"

She began crying.

"Gloria, I know about Trevor."

A pause.

"And I know about Nathan."

I stared at Detective Grant.

Then the woman whispered the words that made my entire world collapse.
