Would the baby suffer from illness after it was born?
Ariana was worried.
Finally, Mitchel spoke.
“You’re carrying twins.

Twins! The unusual shape was in fact a second child?!
Ariana’s eyes widened in shock, and before she could revel in the excitement,
Mitchel’s following words chilled her to the bone.
“However, one is significantly weaker and is being overshadowed, even absorbed, by the other.

Ariana was stunned.

Reclaiming the report from her grasp, he wore a grave expression.
“At this point, you have two choices.
If you wish to keep both, the likelihood of delivering two healthy babies stands at merely 10%.

A wave of cold washed over Ariana as Mitchel’s words sank in.
She grabbed the report from his grip, scrutinizing the images as her fingertips and lips trembled.
All traces of joy were erased.
Seeing her distress, Mitchel offered, “I suggest you have a talk with your husband before coming to any conclusion.

She nodded and her gaze remained vacant.
She studied the paper for a long while before rising from her chair.
“Thanks, Dr.

Jolted back to reality by Horace’s voice, she pulled together a forced smile and replied, “It’s nothing major.
Just a required surgery for my foot.
The explanation of the procedure spooked me a bit.
It sounds painful.
”
Her face betrayed no hint of deceit, leading Horace to sigh in relief.
“Rest assured, we’ll secure the best surgeon for you and plan the most effective operation.
Everything will work out.
”
Ariana responded with an absent-minded nod, her thoughts centered on her unborn.
children.
She found herself tangled in indecision.
Mitchel’s counsel was sound.
After all, Theodore was the father.
She was uncertain whether he would welcome the news of her pregnancy, let alone his reaction if he were to learn about their babies’ condition.
