Chapter 9 - Maya Torres Was Never Their Surrogate

The ugliest assumption spread online immediately.

That Maya had agreed to be a secret surrogate.

She had not.

Maya was a patient at a maternity housing program connected to Dr. Reed’s charitable clinic.

She had financial difficulties and limited family support.

Vanessa’s network offered housing and prenatal care.

Then they began pressuring her to sign adoption documents.

She refused.

Twelve days before the ball, Maya left the residence.

She was not kidnapped afterward.

She was hiding with a cousin because she believed the clinic was trying to take her baby.

Police found her safe.

That mattered.

The story did not need another woman imprisoned somewhere to be serious.

Coercion could happen through paperwork, money, dependency, and fear.
