...
A week flew by in a flash.
Clutching her appointment slip, Cynthia pushed open the heavy mahogany door to the premier gynecology suite at Kindred Heart International Hospital.
Winona was seated behind a sleek, glass-topped desk, meticulously reviewing a patient file.
Hearing the door open, she glanced up. "Ms. Ross? Please, take a seat."
Cynthia settled into the plush leather chair, her gaze discreetly analyzing the woman across from her.
She had seen photos of Winona before. The woman commanded immense respect in the medical community and specialized in highly complex reproductive disorders. It had taken a small fortune and massive networking favors just to secure this consultation slot.
Cynthia opened her mouth to speak, but the office door suddenly swung open.
Xavier strode in, waving a thick medical file. "Winona, the pathology report for the previous patient just came in, you need to..."
He stopped dead in his tracks the moment he spotted Cynthia. His brow furrowed in deep distaste.
Cynthia's pupils dilated in absolute shock. "What are you doing here?!"
Xavier cast a freezing, apathetic glare over her and completely ignored the question.
Winona looked between them, mildly confused. "Do you two know each other?"
Xavier's tone was laced with venom. "Unfortunately, yes. She's the girlfriend of Seraphina's husband."
All the blood violently drained from Cynthia's face.
"What kind of garbage are you spewing?! Watch your damn mouth!"
Xavier didn't flinch. "Whether it's garbage or the ugly truth, you know exactly what you are."
Winona's professional demeanor vanished instantly. The look she gave Cynthia was sharp enough to cut glass. "So, you're a homewrecker?"
Under Winona's searing, judgmental stare, Cynthia felt like she was being roasted alive, yet she couldn't summon a single word of defense.
She couldn't possibly admit her illicit relationship with Dominic to this esteemed doctor.
But aggressively denying it would only make her look guiltier.
Without sparing Cynthia another glance, Xavier turned back to Winona. "Since you have a patient, I'll leave you to it."
