Words spat out of his mouth and some his spit flew into my eye, I had the urge to wipe it off, but quickly stopped when I realized the situation I was in.
"You know what, Connor, I am sick and tired of your attitude," he kept talking, "I lived in a middle class family and had to work my way up to this position and you," he laughed dryly, "sit around all day, while your Daddy works and gets you money."
I grimaced, Ouch, that hurt.
"Dad, I didn't do anything wrong--" he interrupted me, his voice rising.
"Didn't do anything? You had drugs in your locker and got a 30 Day Suspension for it. How do you expect to go to college at this rate." His voice started to strain, "If you're mother was here," he sighed, "Connor I'm sending you to a boarding school for a while."
My eyes widened, He can't be serious, right?.
"You're going to see what it's like to live on $100 dollars a day." He rubbed his temples aimlessly.
"But, Dad," he gave me a stare, and I instantly shut my mouth.
30 Days in a Boarding School, I thought.
"My mother named me Miracle, but I am anything but a miracle in her and our family's life. I am a mistake. I am a product of a heinous crime."
Miracle Astor was born after the rape of her mother. Aurora Astor was convinced by everyone in her family to have an abortion when she found out that her assault had resulted in a child, but much to everyone's shock, Aurora kept the child, and after a long and excruciating labor, on her last breath, she said the word Miracle, which became her daughter's name.
After Aurora died giving birth to her daughter, little Miracle was left under the care of her brothers, all of whom blamed her for the tragedy that happened to their mother. But in order to protect the reputation of their late mother and their well-known family name, the Astor brothers raised Miracle as their own and made the public believe that she was the full-blood daughter of the Astor family.
Sixteen years later, Miracle became depressed and neglected as she carries the heavy weight of pain, guilt, and blame for what happened to her mother.
But what happens when history tries to repeat itself with what happened to Aurora now threatening to happen to Miracle? And the terrible secret of their family cracks and reveals itself out to everyone? Will Miracle finally break? Will her brothers finally step in and be the brothers that she needed? Will someone stop the history from repeating itself and finally save Miracle?
