Dancing let her forget all the worries temporarily. So, when she left the dance troupe that afternoon,
she felt as if she was floating on air.
Suddenly, a ck SUV screeched to a halt in front of her, its door flung open.
Before Lizetta could react, two men in dark suits grabbed her shoulders and shoved her into the
vehicle. The SUV sped off.
Lizetta panicked, trying to resist, but one of the men pushed her back down and snatched her purse.
After a moment of panic, Lizetta calmed down and furrowed her brows, “Are you guys with the Dashiell
family?”
It was broad daylight, and they had just shoved her into a car in the middle of the street.
With
surveince cameras everywhere, if someone was going to kidnap her, this was a bold move. Things
shouldn’t work like that.
So, she guessed these were the Dashiell family’s bodyguards. Was it Remington, that jerk, upset about
her feeding him that soup, sending these goons to settle the score?
“Is it Remington or Hanna?”
“Just cooperate, Mrs. Dashiell, and you won’t get hurt. You’ll know soon enough.”
Hearing the bodyguard’s words, Lizetta knew it was Hanna. Forty minutester, Lizetta was dragged
into a hospital’s maternity ward and, sure enough, Hanna was there.
“Take her in for a check–up,” Hanna ordered the medical staff standing near her, and immediately a
nurte came forward to pull Lizetta.
Lizetta was startled and red at Hanna, brows furrowed, “What are you gonna do to me?”
Hanna snorted, “Why so nervous? Just rx, it’s a routine prenatal check–up.”

Lizetta didn’t buy it, “A routine check–up requires this much fuss? Let go of me; I’m not going in!”
She struggled to free herself from the nurse’s grasp.
Seeing this, Hanna scoffed, “We’re just doing an amniocentesis. Just cooperate, it’s not dangerous.”
With a signal from Hanna, Lizetta was forcefully dragged inside and pinned on the examination table.
The doctor approached to prepare, and Lizetta’s face paled as she started to struggle, “I won’t do it!
Amniocentesis isn’t a standard prenatal test. You have no right to force me into this. Let me go!”
Maybe it was her fierce resistance, or perhaps Hanna needed to see the needle pierce Lizetta’s belly
herself to be reassured.
Hanna stepped in, frowning, “I’m your mother–inw, a family member. I’ve given my consent, so the
procedure is happening. Lizetta, you’d better cooperate with the doctor to avoid getting hurt.
So many women undergo amniocentesis. What makes you any different? A girl with no family should
just ept her fate. You, however, think you can defy everything because Remington spoils you. Stop
being so dramatic!”
Lizetta was pinned down on the cold examination table, her clothes lifted to expose her still–t belly.

As the doctor applied disinfectant, Lizetta’s eyes zed with anger, staring down Hanna, “You’re
insane! Amniocentesis is invasive and only done if there’s a need during an abnormal pregnanc
My prenatal tests have been normal. Even if you want to do early testing for Joseph’spatibility, you
can’t treat me like this! What if something happens to Joy because of this? Let me go. Remi wouldn’t
allow this, either!”
Hanna, seeing her struggle so vehemently, grew even more suspicious.
Thest time, Evelina’s baby had given her false hopes, and she couldn’t let that happen again. She
leaned in closer to Lizetta, her voice cold, “Huh,patibility testing? Before that, you better pray that
the child is indeed Remington’s!
And don’t count on Remington saving you. He’s probably more eager to know if the child is his than I
am. Let’s get on with it!” With that, Hanna stepped back, and the doctor approached Lizetta with a long
needle.
Meanwhile, at the Starlight Group headquarters.
Marlon burst into the CEO’s office, “Boss, we’ve got a problem!”
