At two in the morning, after finishing a grueling twelve-hour emergency room shift, I spotted a young woman sitting outside the hospital with two newborn babies.

I was wrong.

Two days later, my department chief, Richard, summoned me to his office.

He looked unusually troubled.

“Daniel, close the door.”

“Am I in trouble?”

He didn’t smile.

“It’s about that woman you helped outside the hospital.”

My stomach tightened.

“What about her?”

“Her husband has filed a formal complaint against you.”

I blinked.

“What?”

Richard placed a document in front of me.

The complaint accused me of interfering in a marriage, pressuring a vulnerable woman, and encouraging her to leave her husband.

“He wants disciplinary action,” Richard explained.

I stared at the accusations.

“I understand. The complaint still has to be reviewed.”

Then I looked at the signature.

Nathan.

And beneath it was a surname I recognized immediately.

My blood ran cold.

“Richard, what’s his full name?”
