Wanda returned quickly, holding several pregnancy tests in her hands.

"Sir, I bought different brands. We can try them all."

"Hmm," the electronic voice responded from outside the door, followed by a knock.

Hearing the sound, Aveline tensed up, but she knew she had to take the test-she needed to know for certain if she was pregnant.

She opened the door, and Wanda came in, guiding her toward the bathroom.
