Charlotte noticed the tension on their faces and couldn’t help but frown, her eyes sharp with suspicion. She looked straight at Anthony, her voice cool and steady. “Are you keeping something from me?”
“…No, of course not.” Dr. David felt the weight of her icy stare and immediately got nervous. “We wouldn’t dare hide anything from you.”
“We’re with you every day. What could I possibly keep from you?” Anthony stepped closer, still wearing his gloves, so he just leaned his forehead gently against Charlotte’s cheek, trying to calm her. “Don’t overthink this, okay?”
“Yeah, exactly!” Dr. David chimed in, his voice shaky.
Anthony knew the truth would come out sooner or later, but with Charlotte’s pregnancy still unstable, he really didn’t want her to worry right now.
But Charlotte clearly wasn’t convinced. Her expression stayed frosty as she spoke, her words slow and firm. “Is that so?”
Without warning, she grabbed Anthony by the collar and pulled him with her toward the door.
“Lottie, Anthony, where are you guys going?” Dr. David called after them, his heart racing. He started to panic. Was she going to check if Anthony had used the pathogen? The thought made a cold sweat break out on his forehead.
He felt doomed, like he should just go wash his neck and get ready for Charlotte to come after him.
…
Charlotte and Anthony made their way to the blood lab, a little unsteady but determined. When they got inside, Charlotte took off her mask, opened a drawer, and pulled out a brand new syringe. She disinfected it, then shot Anthony a look that could freeze water. “Roll up your sleeve.”
