Cancer tests would take at least two hours to yield results. For Gemma, every second of those two hours was sheer torment.
She could not help but wonder–if Murphy found out she was dying, would he feel sad for her?
Or was she merely a burden to him now? A jealous, twisted nuisance he could not wait to be rid of? She did not know how long she
waited, but eventually, the doctor came out with the results.
“Mr. Townsend, the tests are complete. Ms. Kirk is in excellent health. She doesn’t have cancer at all.”
Gemma was stunned. After all that agonizing waiting, this was the result she received?
She turned sharply to look at Evangeline. She did not need to guess to know that this had to be one of her manipulative schemes.
“Oh, thank goodness.” Evangeline exhaled a long breath, her tone one of exaggerated relief. “So, it was just a prank? Gemma’s
fine… Murphy and I can finally stop worrying.”
Murphy said nothing. He looked at Gemma intently, his gaze lingering as if he was seeing something for the first time.
Gemma’s face was deathly pale, completely devoid of color.
