With the mind of a three-year-old, Ysabell couldn't fully express herself. She would scream, cry and throw things when faced with something. Her emotions were highly volatile.
She often threw objects that hit me, leaving bruises several times.
I was exhausted after finally putting my daughter to bed. I checked my phone and saw that Stefan had made the headlines.
"Famous Actress, Yolanda Jackman, Returns with Her Rich Husband, Stefan Palmer."
"Yolanda and Stefan to Appear on a Family Travel Show with Their Son."
The cracked screen of my phone mirrored my shattered heart. Why? I wanted to scream. Why did my daughter have to suffer while they played happy family?
Reporters swarmed to interview Yolanda. Stefan stood firmly behind her and his love for her was impossible to hide.
"Miss Jackman, are you and Mr. Palmer married?" one reporter asked eagerly.
Yolanda turned to Stefan with a smile and he stepped forward, placing an arm around her shoulders. "Yes. Otherwise, how could we be on a family travel show?" he said confidently.
Yolanda nestled into Stefan's embrace. "That's right. We hope everyone will tune in to our show."
