“Careful,” Jenna whispered.
I lifted one side.
Nothing.
Then I shifted it.
There.
A white envelope had been taped underneath.Start Baby Registry
No name.
No writing.
Just an envelope.
I pulled it free.
“What is this?”
“I genuinely don’t know.”
Then I heard Mark.
“Rose.”
I looked up.
He stood about fifteen feet away.
His expression had changed.
All the warmth was gone.
“What are you doing?”
I held up the envelope.
“What is this?”
He went pale.
That answered more than words could have.
“Give me that.”
“No.”
“Rose.”
He started toward me.
“This isn’t the place.”
Jenna stepped beside me.
Lauren noticed.
“Mom?”
Mark stopped.
Lauren looked from him to me.
Then at the envelope.
“What’s happening?”
“Nothing.”
I almost laughed.
Nothing.
A man who had apparently replaced his own baby’s medical result was telling us nothing was happening.Explore Special Tutors
Lauren walked closer.
