Trapped In Lace

However, during their investigation, they found something.

Back then, Henry had thought that these only happened in soap operas, but unfortunately, he was wrong.

"My aunt had three miscarriages, that my grandmother just couldn't watch her suffer, you know? So she asked the doctor if the couple had any physical condition that could prevent them from having a baby,"

he explained.

"The result was shocking. The doctor discovered that the fetus couldn't grow naturally because of the abnormalities of the couple's DNA. There weren't any infections or abnormalities per se,

but it's just that they're too similar!

Turns out, my great grandfather and the man's grandfather were brothers."

Lea's jaw dropped as she gazed at him in disbelief. "Is that true?"

He nodded. "The man's father is actually related to us. In fact, he's one of our relatives. His parents divorced when he was a child, so he lives with his mother.

Although they weren't part of the immediate family, they're still related by blood."

Henry remembered the shock on his grandmother's face. She was so surprised t

He wanted to talk to him first before he called his mother.

"There's something important I need to discuss with you," he said cautiously.

His father frowned. "You can come to the company."

Lea called Rachel to inform her of what was going on with her family. Hearing her best friend in such a happy mood, Rachel felt happy for her.

However, there was another thing worrying her—her speculated pregnancy. She glanced at the test kit in her bag.

Although she still wasn't sure yet, she couldn't help but feel scared and excited for what was to come.

Back then, she swore to herself that if she ever found herself to be pregnant, she would give birth to the child no matter what.

Now, she still shared the same sentiments.

Rachel calculated the time since her period had been delayed.

When Jack wanted to have sex with her that night, she was unwilling. She pushed him and sat up. "I'm going to sleep in the guest room," she snapped. "You're so annoying!"
