At 30, Rebecca thought she’d be starting a traditional family. Instead, she found herself pregnant by Jack—a man who claimed to be trapped in a loveless marriage. He told her he was leaving his wife, Kate, and made promises of a future together. But four months into her pregnancy, Rebecca got a surprise phone call—from Kate herself.
Kate wasn’t angry. She was calm and kind. She invited Rebecca to meet at a café, bringing along Jack’s two children, Lily and Randall. Rebecca was stunned—not only by Kate’s grace but by the children’s warmth. Even more shocking: Kate and Jack had already divorced five months earlier—something Jack never told Rebecca.
