บท 371: The end

Yan Mei gritted her teeth and huffed through the pain. The nurse hovering over her left shoulder calmly reminded her that "it's okay to make some noise dear, there is no shame in screaming if you want to"

"I can feel the head now, Mrs. Johnson you'll just need to push one more time to deliver this baby" the nurse between her legs called out.

With the help of her mother-in-law they had faked their death with only a few people knowing the truth.
