“WAIT!”
I froze.
A nurse was running across the parking lot toward me, breathless, waving one arm.
For a second, I thought she was going to beg me to reconsider.
But when she reached me, her face was pale.
Her eyes were filled with panic.
And the first words out of her mouth made my blood run cold.
“There’s something they never told you.”
I stared at her.
“What are you talking about?”
She looked back toward the hospital, then grabbed my wrist.
“What they told you about your twins…”
She swallowed hard.
“…wasn’t the whole truth.” 😱

The nurse’s fingers tightened around my wrist.
“What do you mean, it wasn’t the whole truth?” I whispered.
She looked over her shoulder toward the hospital entrance.
“Your husband knew.”
For a moment, I thought I had misheard her.
“Knew what?”
Her expression changed.
