As she read the contents, surprise and intrigue danced across her face, eventually morphing into an uncontainable grin.

She delved further, her smile growing more pronounced, especially when she stumbled upon Theodore's signature on the consent form for pregnancy termination!

The file contained three documents. One report was about the prenatal examination, revealing the presence of twins who were in the pink of health.

The second report recounted Ariana’s physical examination, painting a grim picture of her condition.

It seemed she was grappling with the repercussions of past medications, and her health had taken a toll, marked as high-risk.

The attending physician raised a red flag, warning of imminent danger if the pregnancy continued. The dire prognosis painted a chilling scenario, with a mortality rate already reaching a staggering 60 percent on the day of delivery.

To address the situation, in the third report, Theodore had already signed the consent form for the termination of the pregnancy.

Helen, holding the report, couldn't contain her sinister glee. Her trembling hands spoke volumes!

“Ah, retribution has found its way!" she cackled, her eyes darting to the nearby copy machine.

There was nothing but Lunacy in her eyes!

Ariana must have been unaware that Theodore intended her to undergo an abortion, given how much she wanted a child. Otherwise, she and Theodore would have disagreed.

Helen had an idea while observing the copy machine.

In the Andersons’ residence, Theodore returned before noon, and after a simple lunch, he began packing up.

"Let's visit the hospital again today."

He expressed his intention to take Ariana back to the hospital, driven by the harrowing experience of her recent illness. Concerns grew as their backup medication had been depleted, leaving him uneasy about her safety in the house.

Ariana was well aware of her health scare the day before and didn't oppose Theodore's plan outright.

She couldn't help but place her hand on her lower abdomen and inquired with a tinge of worry, “What did the doctor say regarding my health?

That I'd be fine after the surgery, right? That there won't be any complications?"

Theodore paused, rising from his seat to embrace Ariana tenderly. He tried to reassure her, “It's just a minor surgery, my dear. Nothing to fear. They'll simply remove the remaining medication."

Her next question probed deeper.
