Because of Ivy Tanner's unique physical condition, the moment she stepped out of the examination room, the doctor immediately called the Rhodes Family to report the results of her prenatal check-up.
The doctor likely assumed Ivy Tanner was a simpleton who wouldn't understand what a prenatal check-up was, so she wasn't concerned about whether Ivy, waiting outside the room, could overhear her conversation.
Ivy Tanner distinctly heard the doctor address not Lucas Rhodes, but "Old Madam," at the beginning of the call.
'So, someone in the Rhodes Family is still keeping an eye on me, huh?'
'It seems the Rhodes family estate isn't such a safe place after all.'
'After all, what parents would ever accept an intellectually disabled woman as their daughter-in-law? What if they decide to do something to me...'
At this thought, Ivy Tanner grew more guarded, but she let none of it show on her face as she prepared to head home.
