What An Odd Symbol
Lance leaned forward to get a better view. He was certain he had encountered that icon before, but he was also sure he had never come across it on a diaper.


He had definitely seen it before, but where? And how could this symbol cause his life to take such a radical turn? Only the authorities knew the truth, and when they revealed it, his life would be in shambles.
A Happy Couple
Lance and Rebecca Griffin were close companions since their high school days, and Lance believed that there was nobody else who they cherished more than each other.


But his partner had hidden truths, and they were so immense that they would eventually demolish every single thing Lance cherished. She demanded him to pick an alternative he never desired to settle on, and she would be remorseful for it eventually.
Nothing To Worry About
For the past five years, Lance had felt secure in his marriage. He and his spouse shared every detail of their lives with one another, or so he believed.


However, the reality was he had no knowledge of her. Eventually, she transformed into a different individual and her real identity was revealed prior to her ability to conceal her actions.
Stay At Home Dad
Lance was a dad who stayed at home and cared for his infant son while his wife was laboring away. As far as he knew, Rebecca was employed by a substantial company that manufactured items for babies.


She earned enough money to guarantee her family would have an enjoyable life. Sadly, this was not the truth-- it was just another fabrication that Rebbeca had created.
Noticing Something
One day, while Lance was keeping an eye on his son, Cody, he perceived something he had never noticed before. The young child appeared to be captivated by his diaper. He was gazing at it constantly.


At the beginning, Lance assumed the infant had recently seen it and was entranced by it. Nonetheless, his point of view would alter within a few days.
A Constant Thing
As the days went by, Lance noticed it kept happening. Whenever Cody got the opportunity, he would gaze at his diaper as if it was something out of this world.


Lance was taken aback as his son had never acted in such a manner before. Unfortunately, that was just the start of his difficulties. What followed forced him to take action.
Concerned
Shortly after noting it, Lance understood that the infant was continually itching himself and was greatly annoyed.


Lance figured he might be exhausted and chose to investigate the baby's diaper prior to laying him down to rest. In any case, when he pulled the onesie over the child's midsection, he spotted an awful rash.
Checking It Out
Lance was shocked. He was confident that the eruption had not been there the last time he changed the diaper. The most awful aspect was that he did not know what caused it or how it had been able to grow so rapidly.


While Lance was looking into the matter, he noticed that the rash was more severe in the parts of Cody's skin that had been in contact with the diaper. Additionally, he figured out something else.
What On Earth
On the diaper's waistband, there was a peculiar sign. Lance was positive he had encountered it in the past, but he was unable to pinpoint where he had noticed it.On the diaper's waistband, there was a peculiar sign. Lance was positive he had encountered it in the past, but he was unable to pinpoint where he had noticed it.


That was not the most perplexing aspect of the situation, however. The symbol, and numerous others similar to it, appeared to shine more brightly when they were exposed to a liquid.
A Professional Opinion
Lance was aware that he was not knowledgeable in this subject, so he got in touch with Cody's pediatrician, Dr. Grober. Fortunately, the doctor was not preoccupied and agreed to meet with Cody within the next 60 minutes.


Lance was delighted as he prepared his son for the visit to the medical office. Neither one of them expected the results that the physician was about to reveal.
Not What He Expected
Dr. Grober examined Cody in detail and discovered that there was more wrong with the infant than just the rash. Despite the fact that Cody appeared healthy, something seemed to be troubling him.


He was much weaker than expected, and his testing temper was due to his extreme exhaustion. Other medical personnel would have immediately diagnosed him with chicken pox, but Dr. Grober was hesitant.
Samples And Tests
The doctor questioned Lance if he would consent to experiments on the baby and the diapers. Lance was puzzled by the inquiry, but he was more concerned for his son's health than a diaper.


He accepted to do the exams. The physician examined the infant's lungs, took a few x-rays and did some blood tests before recommending some ointment for the rash and sending Lance home.
Days Pass
The doctor informed Lance that it might take up to seven days to acquire the outcomes, but by the third day, he was anxious.


The cream was able to alleviate the breakout, however it couldn't get rid of it. It also wasn't able to help with Cody's other issues. Furthermore, Lance still hadn't told Rebecca what was happening.
No Answers
Lance did not want to upset his wife with something that might not be an issue. Therefore, he determined to stay silent until he heard what the physician had to declare.


However, he was still unable to come up with a solution, and he was well aware that it was only a matter of time before Rebecca discovered he was concealing something from her. But what alternative did he have? She was already in such a state of anxiety.
Keeping Secrets
Recently, Rebecca has invested a great deal of extra time into her job, which has left her with little opportunity to stay at home. Additionally, the labor has become quite difficult for her.


She had a very bad temper, and would become irritated at the slightest thing. This is precisely what happened when she came across the medical invoice that had come through sooner than Lance expected.
A Frantic Phone Call
After he said that Cody wasn't feeling very well, she stopped asking about it and went to work. It was a great relief, but it wouldn't last for long.


Just after Rebecca left in a fury, Lance got a frantic call from the doctor. He urgently asked Lance to bring Cody and some nappies to his clinic immediately.
Heading To The Office
Lance immediately recognized the gravity in the doctor's voice, so he didn't pause. He secured his son and rushed to the doctor's clinic.


Lance was unaware that the encounter he was about to have would have such a huge effect on his life. It was not only going to separate him from his partner, but it was also going to modify his emotions towards her.
The Results Were Back
When Lance reached the workplace, the receptionist hastened him to the physician. Doctor Grover inspected both Lance and Cody before proclaiming, “The findings are here.”


Lance plopped himself in the chair opposite the doctor, glad that he would get the info he wanted. Unfortunately, it wasn't going to be easy. The doctor was aware of something that he was not willing to divulge in the moment.
Something Wasn't Right
The doctor instructed Lance to alter the infant's diaper, but he refused to utilize one of his own.


He acquired some items specifically for this situation. Lance was perplexed by what he thought was different behavior, yet he followed the doctor's instructions regardless. Afterwards, the doctor conducted another checkup on the infant.
Laced With Tension
Lance could recognize that something wasn't right. It seemed like the doctor was taking an unusually long time. It was almost as if he was intentionally prolonging the situation.


The atmosphere in the room was very tense. Lance had the feeling that the doctor had stumbled upon something he had no intention of revealing. What could this be?
Unable To Explain
Lance was exasperated with the activity they were doing and asked, 'What is the issue with my offspring?'


The doctor gestured to his desk, and the two of them sat down. Doctor Grover sighed and said, "I'm sorry, but I cannot give you that information." He gave Lance a compassionate glance, but it had no effect on calming him.
Getting Impatient
Lance posed his question: "Can I do it?" His temper was beginning to fray. The physician responded, "I'm not authorized to discuss that topic.


Lance was bewildered. How could a physician not talk about a health issue? As he was about to pose the inquiry, a person rapped on the door.
A Knock On The Door
Lance gazed at the physician, who gave the impression of being hugely relieved. It appeared as if he anticipated the rap. Was this a means of escaping the appointment without granting Lance any solutions?


Lance was very frustrated. He had no intention of looking for money from the doctor. All he wanted was to get to the bottom of his son's ailment.
Finally Getting Answers
The doctor opened the entrance, and two law enforcement officers stepped inside. That was something Lance did not foresee. Was he in a difficult situation?


The doctor sat down again and said, "These people can fill you in on what's happening." The police officers then approached and told him that the diapers were the source of his son's sickness. They said the diapers were considered to be illegal things.
Disbelief
Lance was thoroughly shocked by what he was being told. It was inconceivable to him that diapers could be illegal. He asked the policeman to explain what he had seen on Cody's diaper, and the officer displayed the sign once again, only this time it was not on a diaper.


The police officer declared that the diapers were made without following the required regulations. They haven't been verified by the FDA, so they are not accepted. Do you know where you obtained them from?
Trying To Protect Her
It suddenly became clear to Lance; he hadn't actually purchased the diapers last time. Rebecca had brought them when she came home from her job. But he was not about to blame her for it.


Lance had no recollection of where he had obtained the diapers, but he was aware that it was not wise to deceive the authorities.
They Had All The Evidence
When the man finished responding, the policewoman took out a photo from the folder she was carrying and presented it to him. "Are you familiar with this lady?" she inquired.


Lance's expression suddenly altered. The female in the image was his spouse. And he had no concept why she would depart a disreputable storehouse in the dark.
What Was Happening
Lance found his voice again and queried with puzzlement, “What is happening here?” The officers exchanged glances, conveying to him that his circumstances were about to be drastically altered.


The female officer attempted to console Lance, informing him that his partner was not the individual he assumed her to be. Nonetheless, it was too late; his perfect universe had already been destroyed.
Pieces Of Truth
Lance had no idea how bad the reality was. The policemen had a sufficient amount of information to completely disrupt his life.


Rebecca made the bold decision to alter the path of her career. She purloined the equation her bosses used to construct diapers and chose to become a business owner on her own.
Illegal Operation
Rebecca got some underground scientists to create the diapers, but there were potential issues with them. She was not completely aware of what the ingredients were in the diapers.


Once the initial lot of products was done, she determined to take them home and utilize them on the only infant she could assess them on - her son. Lance was enraged and promised that he would make her pay for her actions.
