Cole’s end was noisy with the sounds of a busy clinic. “Ethan already messaged me. He only told me to prepare a eport for him. He didn’t mention anything else.”
Chloe’s heart skipped a beat. “What do you mean?”
Going through the motions” usually meant doing every test but falsifying the results afterward. But if Ethan only isked Cole for the report, was he planning to have someone else perform the actual exams?
It means exactly what I said. I have patients. Goodbye.” Cole was brief and hung up immediately.
