The nurse examined Lucy’s twins before discharge, but Lucy was shocked when she returned them. The nurse had brought two baby girls after the examination, and Lucy had given birth to one boy and one girl.
Lucy and Ross had been trying to conceive for a long time, and when they discovered they were expecting twins—a boy and a girl—they were overjoyed.
However, after delivery, the nurse brought them two baby girls. Lucy’s face turned pale. “Where’s my son? And whose baby is this?” she screamed.
“They are your daughters, ma’am,” Nurse Savannah replied nervously. But Lucy had proof she was supposed to have a boy. Sensing something amiss, she confronted Dr. Linda Carter, who assured them it was a mix-up. However, Savannah’s hesitation raised Lucy’s suspicion.
Eavesdropping on Savannah and Dr. Carter, Lucy discovered the truth—Savannah had swapped her son with her deceased sister’s daughter, hoping she’d have a loving home. Lucy’s heart ached for the orphaned child.
Later, Dr. Carter returned Lucy’s son, apologizing. That night, Lucy couldn’t stop thinking about the girl. The next morning, she told Ross she wanted to adopt her. Though hesitant, Ross changed his mind when he held the baby. Naming her Amelia, they completed their family, with Savannah remaining a close friend and frequent visitor.
