Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 406

Lizetta felt her eyes brimmed with warmth as she pulled Joseph into a hug.

"It doesn't hurt, sweetheart. You get shots every day and don't flinch. A little poke for Lizetta won't hurt, right?"

"But if it weren't for me."

"It's not about you. I wanted to help save you too. When I first found out I was pregnant with Joy, I asked the doctor about it.

Lizetta's resistance to having amniotic fluid drawn wasn't about refusing to help Joseph but about respect.

It was a completely different issue.
