Piper nodded meekly, "I understand, Mom."

Once Mrs. Walker left, Piper wiped away her tears and dialed the private investigator's number, "How's the investigation going?"

"Brittany was seen visiting the Lynette Family Private Clinic for a comprehensive health examination." The detective shared, "One of the tests was a pregnancy test." "Boom-"

"Pregnancy test?"

"Yes, Brittany is pregnant."

Piper felt like she struck gold, "Do we have solid evidence?"

"Not yet, but a woman doesn't just visit an obstetrician for no reason." The detective wasn't completely sure, but his instincts told him Brittany was pregnant.

Piper squinted, "Keep digging. We need concrete evidence."

At least, not by herself.
