“Murder!” Rachel shrieked, her reflexes kicking in as she scrambled backward, crawling frantically toward the crowd.

Gasps turned into a ripple of approval as the onlookers mistook Rachel’s sudden movement for a miraculous recovery.

Megan stole a glance at Hugh, forcing a shaky smile through her guilt. “Thank goodness, my mom’s finally awake.”

Hugh’s gaze, heavy with complexity, stayed locked on Bethan’s face.

He stepped closer to her. “Since she’s fine now, I’ll drive you back to the hospital.”

Bethan extended her hand, palm open, revealing the hairpin.

Hugh’s eyes flickered as they landed on it, his expression wavering.

He reached for it, but Bethan tossed it to the ground with a dismissive flick, leaving his hand grasping at air.

They stared at each other in silence for a tense moment. 1/6

“I was ready to let them be,” Bethan said, her voice steady but edged with frustration. “But you and your mistress keep coming for me, refusing to let me go.”

Hugh’s chest tightened, a dull ache spreading through him. He reached for her hand, but Bethan stepped back, evading him.

“Just two hours ago,” she continued, “you stood in my office, begging me to give you some time, saying you’d handle things to my satisfaction.”

Hugh’s breathing grew uneven, his emotions roiling.

He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came.

Bethan’s voice didn’t waver. “Their pathetic little performance? Mason saw through it. Mr. Locke saw through it. I saw through it. But you? You chose to believe them.”

Hugh’s gaze faltered, his eyes searching hers as he took a step closer.

Bethan stepped back again, keeping her distance.

“We grew up together, Hugh,” she said, her voice trembling with suppressed pain. “We were married for three years. Yet there you were, standing by another woman in front of everyone, accusing me of being petty, questioning my ethics 44 2/6 attacking my character, and telling the world I’m unfit to be a

doctor.”

Hugh felt as if the life had been drained from him, his strength sapped.

He wanted to close the gap between them, but his feet felt glued to the ground.

Bethan held his gaze, her eyes blazing. “You don’t get to question me, Hugh. Anyone else could doubt me about that, but you can’t. You don’t have the right.”

Her voice cracked slightly as she continued, “You know my lifelong dream was to play the violin. I gave up music school and chose medicine because of your insomnia.”

She turned away, her resolve unshakable, and walked off.

“Bethan!” Hugh called after her, his voice raw with desperation.

He watched her slender figure fade into the distance, a dull pain throbbing in his chest.

Just then, the ambulance screeched to a halt.

Megan shot Rachel a quick look, and Rachel collapsed back. onto the ground, gasping dramatically.

She turned to Bethan, her tone dripping with false sincerity. “Mrs. Cavill, I’m sorry for what I said earlier. My mom collapsed so suddenly, and I panicked. Please don’t hold it against me.”

Megan glanced at Hugh as she spoke.

“Hugh,” she added, “I said some harsh things in the heat of the moment. Once I get my mom settled in the hospital, I’ll come by in person to apologize.”

With that, she hurried into the ambulance and was gone.

Bethan stared after the vehicle, rolling her eyes inwardly.

This was the extent of Megan’s tricks-pathetic.

She’d once thought Megan had some cunning, but now? Disappointing.

Without a backward glance, Bethan crossed the street.

Mason and Arthur flanked Hugh, holding him back until Bethan reached the other side and the light turned red.

Mason clapped a hand on Hugh’s shoulder. “Megan’s mother is headed to the hospital. Aren’t you going to check on her?”

Arthur ruffled his short hair with a smirk. “Mason, you’ve got it all wrong. Mr. Cavill’s only sleeping with the young one, not the old one. No need to take responsibility for both.”

Hugh was already in a foul mood, and their jabs pushed him to the brink of a heart attack.

By half-past two that afternoon, Bethan was back in her office.

Her assistant, Joe, knocked and entered, placing a medical report on her desk. “Dr. Olsen, your husband said to give you his test results directly.”

Bethan scanned the report thoroughly.
