My entire body went still.
Sophie began to cry.
But Dr. Keller wasn’t finished.
“There’s more,” he said.
I gripped the edge of the chair.
“What more?”

“The consent paperwork lists both intended parents.”
He paused.
“And according to the clinic’s records, a transfer was requested six weeks ago.”
Sophie froze.
I stared at him.
“Requested by who?” I asked.
Dr. Keller’s face tightened.
“That’s what we need to find out.”
