Chapter 1
"Where is everyone?" she muttered, glancing around.
The lunch bag in Sophie’s hand felt heavier than usual as she walked into her husband’s office. She had been excited to surprise him, imagining how he would feel when she handed him his favorite meal.
But instead of the usual hum of activity, the office was eerily quiet. His chair was empty, and even his secretary was nowhere to be found.
With a frown, she stepped out and headed for the receptionist downstairs. The young woman behind the desk smiled brightly as Sophie approached.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Kelvin! How can I help you?"
"Do you know where my husband is? Or his secretary? His office is empty," Sophie asked, her voice calm but tinged with curiosity.
The receptionist hesitated for a moment. "Oh, um, Mr. Kelvin rushed Miss Brenda to the hospital. I think it was an emergency."
Sophie's heart skipped a beat. "Which hospital?"
"St. Mary's. The family hospital."
"Thank you," Sophie said briskly, already heading out the door.
Her thoughts raced as she drove to the hospital.
Why would he take her there? Was she sick? Or... could it be something else? The late nights, the hushed phone calls, and the undeniable distance between them—all of it swirled in her mind. No, it can't be. Not Brenda.
When she arrived at the hospital, she parked hastily and grabbed her phone, dialing her husband. It rang... and rang... but he didn’t pick up. Frustration mounted.
Sophie took a deep breath and marched to the doctor's office. She had no time for subtlety; she needed to know what was happening.
It was unlike him to do that. The family hospital was also the company's hospital. Just 10 minutes drive away and he had to personally bring her here when there is provision for an ambulance at the company?
Reaching the door, she was about to knock when muffled voices stopped her.
"Mr. Kelvin, I'm so sorry," came the doctor's voice, heavy with regret. "But she lost the baby."
Sophie's breath hitched, her hand frozen on the doorknob. The words echoed in her mind like a bombshell.
