Chapter 2 - The Medical Illusion
The chaotic hospital waiting room was completely silent except for the ticking of the wall clock.
Nathan paced back and forth across the sterile linoleum floor, his hands covered in the fake blood.
He furiously ordered Ethan to leave the hospital and threatened to have him arrested for assault.
Ethan tried desperately to explain about the popping sound and the deflating silicone belly.
Nathan refused to listen to a single word, blinded by overwhelming guilt and panic.
He called his private security guards and literally had his own brother thrown out of the building.
But Ethan did not go home to sleep.
He slipped through a side exit and quietly snuck into the hospital's underground administrative wing.
He needed absolute proof that Vanessa was orchestrating a massive, calculated scam.
He hacked into the staff directory terminal and found the office of the doctor treating Vanessa upstairs.
Ethan bypassed the electronic lock on the door using a magnetic keycard he had stolen from a distracted nurse.
The office was dark, but he quickly found Vanessa's heavily protected medical file sitting on the desk.
He flipped through the glossy pages, searching for the fabricated ultrasound photos or fake blood tests.
What he found was far more terrifying than a simple fake pregnancy scam.
The medical file contained heavily detailed psychological profiles on Nathan, Ethan, and Sarah.
There were hundreds of high-resolution surveillance photos of Sarah sleeping in her own bed at the estate.
Vanessa was not just a greedy assistant trying to secure a quick financial payout.
She had been stalking their family for years, learning every single detail of their private lives.
Ethan grabbed the thick folder and rushed toward the office door, desperate to show Sarah the truth.
As his hand touched the brass doorknob, the heavy wooden door was suddenly kicked open from the outside.

A massive man in a dark suit stood blocking the exit, holding a suppressed handgun.
The man smiled coldly and told Ethan that the doctor would see him now.
