Already a mother and a grandmother to two girls, she hadn\u2019t anticipated having more children at her age. Worried and overwhelmed, she asked the doctor, &ldquo;Can we terminate the pregnancy?&rdquo;\n</p><p>Dr. Carter&rsquo;s response only deepened her anxiety. &ldquo;I\u2019m sorry, Mrs. Anderson. It\u2019s too late. Your reports indicate complications, and you\u2019re likely to deliver prematurely. Abortion could be life-threatening for you.&rdquo;\n</p><p>Devastated, Barbara confided in her daughter Melanie, who initially thought it was a joke. Once Melanie saw the ultrasound reports, however, she realized her mother was serious. &ldquo;Oh my goodness, Mom! This is unbelievable! What have you decided to do?&rdquo;\n</p><p>Barbara explained her reluctance but admitted she had no choice but to continue the pregnancy. Melanie reassured her, saying, &ldquo;If God has placed you in this situation, He will guide you through it. Don\u2019t worry, Mom.

Her husband, Josh, also helped, joining Melanie on hospital visits.\n</p><p>However, the family\u2019s bond faced an unexpected strain when the twins were born prematurely. When the nurse brought the babies to meet their family, both Melanie and Josh noticed something peculiar: the babies had identical birthmarks on their shoulders\u2014birthmarks that matched Josh\u2019s.\n</p><p>Melanie\u2019s joy quickly turned into anger. &ldquo;How is this possible? Josh, did you cheat on me with my mother?&rdquo; she cried.\n</p><p>Shocked by the accusation, Josh stammered, &ldquo;What? Are you crazy, Melanie?

Her face was red with tears and anger.\n</p><p>&ldquo;Mom, how could you? Did you and Josh\u2026?&rdquo;\n</p><p>Barbara was stunned by her daughter\u2019s accusations. &ldquo;Honey, calm down! What are you talking about?&rdquo;\n</p><p>Melanie poured out her suspicions, saying she couldn\u2019t believe what had happened. &ldquo;I supported you throughout this pregnancy, Mom! And now I find out this? I\u2019m divorcing Josh!&rdquo;\n</p><p>Barbara, deeply hurt by her daughter\u2019s words, realized it was time to reveal the truth.

A few months earlier, during a family gathering at Andrew\u2019s ranch, Barbara and Andrew had too much to drink, and things took a romantic turn.\n</p><p>Josh nodded, confirming that the birthmark ran in his family. &ldquo;It\u2019s true, Melanie. My father and grandfather both have the same birthmark.&rdquo;\n</p><p>Barbara tearfully admitted, &ldquo;I should\u2019ve told you earlier, but I was scared of how it might affect you and your family.

He deserves to know the truth, and the children are his responsibility too.&rdquo;\n</p><p>Gathering her courage, Barbara called Andrew and explained everything.

A few hours later, he arrived at the hospital with a bouquet and proposed to Barbara, saying, &ldquo;I want to be there for you and the children.&rdquo;\n</p><p>Blushing, Barbara accepted his proposal, and a few months later, they married in an intimate family ceremony.
