The Wrong Woman

Gregory lay on the hospital bed, with bandages covering his head and body. He had just come out of the emergency room, so he looked very weak.

Imogen and Jasper rushed to the hospital. Seeing the injured Gregory, they were both shocked and horrified.

Gregory was a disabled man and to be beaten like this was beyond unjust.

With tears in her eyes, Imogen angrily demanded, "Dad, who did this to you?"

Gregory shook his head and slowly looked at Jasper.

Jasper's expression was serious as he comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. I'll handle this. Just take care of yourself."

Carol's eyes were red from crying. She said in a low and hoarse voice, "Imogen, it was a group of thugs. They attacked your dad out of nowhere. Did you offend someone?"

Imogen looked at Carol in confusion. She asked, "Mom, why do you think it's because of me?"

Carol sniffled and choked up, "B-Because they kept shouting that your dad didn't know how to raise his daughter."

Imogen was stunned. She turned to look at Jasper.
