The Wrong Woman

As Scarlett underwent a series of tests, Imogen sat on a hospital bench, glancing at her phone to check the time and reading over the apology message she had sent earlier. A sense of heaviness burdened he heart.

Before, Scarlett had taken the man Imogen once had a crush on. Now, Scarlett had also dashed the job opportunity Imogen had longed for.

Imogen couldn't help but feel that Scarlett's presence was nothing short of bad luck for her.

Imogen couldn't gauge how much time had elapsed when Ethan rushed into the hospital in a frenzy. Upon spotting her, he hesitated briefly before blurting out, "Imogen, what are you doing here? Where's Scarlett? And why are you soaked?"

Imogen stared at him with a steely glare but chose to say nothing.

Imogen scoffed inwardly. Instead of something happening with their child, it was just Scarlett scheming against Imogen.
