Astrid guessed something was amiss when she saw Amanda’s expression.

She moved to snatch the document from Amanda’s hand, but Farrah beat her to it, grabbing the somewhat worn–out paper. They were all prenatal checkup reports!

Elio was also shocked. He stared at Astrid, speechless.

Hawthorne was watching Elio’s reaction, but he didn’t see the anger he was expecting.
