My mother, Dr. Marino, is a well-known geneticist at MIT. She designed her own gene-grading system.

She’s three.” “Take her in… the way you once took me in.” ... I knew I was dying. That’s why I didn’t call 911. I called the man who had raised me, Alessio Bellini. Down in the basement, the phone rang several times before he picked up. “What is it?” Alessio’s voice was as cold as ever. I pressed a hand to my bleeding abdomen, forcing the words out. “Alessio, I’m dying. Can you adopt Grace?” “She’s only three.” “Beck......
