Zoe had been through a lot as a nurse and a mother. But when Zoe’s four-year-old son Leo started acting scared around his grandmother Denise, she knew she had to look into it. Even though Denise seemed like a loving person, Zoe found a web of secrets and lies that could change the way their family worked.
Zoe had always been worried about Denise’s mood swings and controlling behaviour, but she thought it was because she was protective as a grandma. Zoe knew something wasn’t right when Leo started to cling to her before she went to work and hide under the couch when Denise came over.
Leo’s tears and fears showed him a shocking truth: Denise had been trying to get a DNA sample from him, saying she needed to make sure he was his father because of his white hair. Zoe was shocked by what Denise did and felt betrayed by her.
As things went on, Zoe’s husband Andrew became involved in the fight, and Denise started to make people question Leo’s parents. Zoe suggested that Andrew take a DNA test, but only if he also took a test to prove his own parentage. This was because Andrew’s mother was very interested in genes.
The test results showed that Leo was Andrew’s son, but they also revealed a family secret that had been kept secret for a long time: Andrew’s real father was not the person he thought it was. Andrew was born from Denise’s affair in the past, and her guilt was put on Zoe and Leo.
In the end, Zoe and Andrew decided to spend time with their family instead of giving Denise the time and space she had abused. The family was at a crossroads because Zoe was determined to protect her son and find the truth. But in the end, the trip made their bond stronger and more resilient.
