Entrapment

Over the past two days, Amelia had observed something different and troubling about her mother-in-law. It alerted her to the possibility that her mother-in-law could be fishing for the truth behind her pregnancy.

It all started with her innocent food craving.

Amelia had simply asked her husband to get her a specific brand of yoghurt.

Blaze didn't find the request odd because Dr Ashely had approved of yoghurt as safe for his wife.

Maria on the other hand found this request odd and suspicious. This was the same brand of yogurt she craved while she was pregnant for Blaze. It has all the complete nutrients needed for a developing child.

From that very moment, Maria started paying more attention to her daughter-in-law, a growing but hidden excitement in her eyes. She would innocently recommend a meal and watch her daughter-in-law devour it like a hungry mama bear.
