The night belonged to many offices where lights still burned late , hars ative with music and revelry , Highways pulsing with endless threats of airports and train stations bustling with hurried travelers , Some drowned their sorrows in drink , while others lay awake , restless .
The long night finally came to an end . Until the first light of dawn brake , heralding a new beginning . The travelers in the early morning , Teresa checked the time as she stepped off the plane – 740 AM ,
Iernigh international Airport was busting with
Teresa took a taxi straight to Narrigh General Hospital Jemiler hadn’t started her shift yet . After another deepless night , she sat in a chair , massaging . her throbbing temples , trying to get a bit of rest .
The door swung open . Jennifer opened her eyes , thinking it was Lucia barging in without knocking again . She was about to scold her only to see Teresa standing there , suitcase in tow , fixing her with an angry stare .
Jennifer froze , staring in disbelief , “ What are you doing here ? Weren’t you supposed to
Teresa cut her off , saying , “ Wasn’t I supposed to be in Gorthany by now ? So how come I’m back is that what you’re going to say ?
Jennifer’s brow furrowed – Teresa was supposed to have left for Gorthany yesterday . The very next second , a forged breast cancer best report was slammed into Jennifer’s chest with such force that it left her skin stinging
“ Mom told me everything . You told her I was in trouble in Nareigh and needed to leave for Gorthany to see her
“ Then you lied to her , saying I refused to go , so you made her take an illness to trick me into coming right away .
“ As a gynecologist , forging a report comes so easily to you , doesn’t it ? You want me to leave so you played us both ”
Jennifer hadn’t expected Evelyn to sell her out . She tried to explain , “ I just wanted you to take some time to cool down and not act so rashly ”

When Teresa left , she’d been in such a rush that she hadn’t even checked the hospital’s name .
Only after hearing Miriam’s words did she notice “ Nareigh General Hospital ” printed at the very bottom – and the doctor’s signature , scrawled in a suspiciously familiar hand , looked just like Jennifer’s handwriting .
Teresa stormed over to Evelyn and asked her if this report was real or fake . When
on she realized that Teresa had found out , Evelyn quickly came clean .
Only then did it dawn on Teresa that Jennifer had lied to Evelyn , claiming she was having a hard time in Nareigh . Jennifer had even gone so far as to reveal Teresa’s pregnancy , making Evelyn believe she was being mistreated in Nareigh
She wasted no time booking a return flight . Only after getting off the plane did Teresa notice the multiple missed calls from Jonathand the text message from Gary .
Jennifer told Jonathan and Grandpa that you’re moving to Gorthany for work . Was she trying to hide the thing about Mike , afraid you might tell them ? Jonathan went to your place , but you weren’t home . Did you go to Goithany ?
