I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.
“What information?”
He hesitated, then opened another document.
“Daniel has a biological family history that was never properly disclosed to the clinic. Several members of his family had experienced serious medical complications.”
Emily stood up.
“I want to know everything. Right now!”
The doctor nodded.
“We’ve contacted the genetic laboratory for confirmation. But there’s one more thing I need to explain.”
He looked directly at me.
“Sarah, your baby’s genetic profile is slightly different from Emily’s. Although they share the same biological father, one of the results suggests that your children may have inherited different combinations of the same genetic variants.”
For a moment, nobody spoke.
Then my phone rang.
It was an unknown number.
I answered.
“Hello?”
A man’s voice spoke quietly.
“Sarah? My name is Daniel. I know you’re at the clinic right now.”
