As soon as Samantha heard the creak of the door opening, her heart started to pound. Her gaze was fixated on the door.

The nurse who had come to change the IV drip paused at the sight of the two of them staring oddly at her..

“Is there something I can help you with?” she asked.

William’s hopeful gaze dimmed instantly.

Samantha, on the other hand, looked as if she’d just been granted reprieve. She felt relieved Rachel wasn’t there.

William stepped forward as he asked, “Could I trouble you to tell me who’s been caring for Mr. Lloyd the past couple of days?”

“His daughter, of course,” the nurse replied.

William pulled up a photo of Rachel on his phone and showed it to her. “Was it this person?”

The nurse studied it for a moment, seemingly trying to recall, then shook her head. “No, that’s not her.”

Samantha watched William’s urgency with a heavy heart. Her usual innocent–looking eyes were now bloodshot with jealousy and bitterness. If she had known William still cared this much about Rachel, she never should have said anything in the first place.

She took a deep breath, walked to William’s side, and said softly, “William, I told you. I must’ve been mistaken. Let it go. We don’t have a good relationship with the Lloyd family right now anyway. We should leave before things get awkward.”

William followed her out of the room.
