The doctor’s face was grim. “Your sister’s physical constitution... is not very well-suited for pregnancy. While the fetus is fine for now, during delivery, her chances of having complications are significantly higher than for other expectant mothers.”

Gabriel’s pupils contracted sharply. His lips pressed into a thin, hard line, and his cool voice trembled uncontrollably. “Is there... any way to...”

You can go home and discuss with your family how best to break this news to her.

Gabriel listened, his gaze falling to the floor. Looking up, his voice was cold. “What if the delivery is a scheduled C-section with general anesthesia?”
