After discovering his son Jack’s hidden stash of $7,000, Mark feared the worst and installed a camera in Jack’s car. What he uncovered tested his trust and led to a revelation that changed their family’s future forever.
When my wife left, Jack and I had to become a family of two. It wasn’t easy. Things got harder after an accident three years ago. My brother, Duke, caused a crash that cost me my leg, and I had to start working from home.
Jack had become distant recently, so I searched his room and found a lot of money. Confronting him, Jack insisted he earned it from odd jobs, but I didn’t believe him. To uncover the truth, I installed a camera in his car.
One night, I saw Jack meeting Duke and receiving packages. Fearing the worst, I confronted them. Duke revealed that they had started a small business making and selling jerky to save money for a prosthetic leg for me.
I felt a rush of guilt and shame. Jack wanted it to be a surprise, and Duke was trying to do something good. We reconciled, and the jerky business thrived, bringing us closer together as a family.
