After years of infertility, my husband Mark and I adopted Sam, a quiet three-year-old with ocean-blue eyes. We were overjoyed—until the moment Mark gave Sam his first bath. Seconds later, he ran out, pale and panicked, shouting, “We must return him!”
I rushed in, confused—until I saw the small birthmark on Sam’s foot. Identical to Mark’s. That night, Mark claimed it was a coincidence. I didn’t believe him. So I sent in a DNA test behind his back. The results confirmed my worst suspicion:
Sam was Mark’s biological son from a one-night stand during a business trip—while I was undergoing fertility treatments. Mark had no idea the child existed until he saw that birthmark. But what hurt more than the betrayal was that his first instinct was to give Sam away. I couldn’t let that happen.
I filed for divorce, claimed full custody, and chose to raise Sam as my own. Not because he shared Mark’s DNA, but because I loved him deeply—and he loved me back. Today, Sam knows he’s adopted, but more importantly, he knows he was chosen. By me. And that love isn’t always born—it’s built.
