The woman's bulging belly looked like a hill under the thick blanket.Jonathan pulled the bedcover that Elena used to cover her body, although he was reluctant to do so. However, his concern for the condition of the fetus in Elena's stomach was so great that this morning he planned to take his wife to the gynecologist."Eng," Elena murmured as Jonathan pulled back the blanket she was wearing."Get ready. We should be at the hospital in 20 minutes."Jonathan ordered with both hands tucked into his pants pockets.

Because his movements would always be restricted, and there was nothing to comfort him there.Jonathan then called Russell, the Hayes family doctor, to check on his mother's condition while lying on the bed. The middle-aged woman's eyes were closed with her eyebrows knitted together, as if even in her sleep she was still enduring the pain that attacked her head."How is it, Russell?" Jonathan asked Russell when the man finished checking Theresia's condition."Her blood pressure is very high. It's best to keep her away from things that trigger stress.

Jonathan returned to the parking lot where he had parked his car. His heart was beating uncontrollably, as if it were about to jump out. He wasn't sure if he should open the envelope containing the DNA test results that he had brought.

Both of Elena's palms covered her gaping lips, which were quite wide. The woman panicked and looked in all directions, worried if anyone had seen what had just happened."What are you doing, Elena?"
