CHAPTER 16

“Where the hell is she?” a worried voice shouted as a man charged into the emergency waiting room.

Nate jumped to his feet, instantly recognising Olivia’s husband. Quinn Glenn was a tall athletic man with short brown hair and dark blue eyes, wearing an expensive tailored suit.

“Mr. Glenn? I’m Nate. I spoke to you on the phone,” Nate approached the man who held out his hand which he shook in greeting.

Nate didn’t know much about Quinn, only that he’d been born and raised in one of the toughest neighborhoods in Glasgow and had ruthlessly fought his way to become one of the most successful businessmen in the region.

“Alright Nate. Where’s Olivia?”

“I’m no’ sure. I’ve just got here. My wife went with her in the ambulance and I’ve been waiting to hear what’s happening.”

“Thanks for calling me. I need to find out what’s going on,” Quinn said as he walked away to the reception desk.

Just as he reached the desk Deanna entered the waiting room from a side door, looking tired and disheveled, and Nate jogged over to her.

“How is she?” Nate asked her as Quinn spotted them talking and rushed over.

“Where’s Olivia? What’s happening?” Quinn asked, panic filling him. Deanna realised that this was Olivia’s obviously worried husband.

“Why don’t we sit down and I’ll tell you what I know,” Deanna said, gesturing to a private room in the corner.

Nate led the way into the small room and closed the door behind them to give them privacy to talk.

“I’ve had to leave as they took her into theatre. They’re not exactly sure what’s happening but they said someone will let you know soon. She was clipped in the side by the car. They don’t know the extent of damage but there was some bleeding,” Deanna tried to explain.

“You mean, it could be something to do with the baby?” Quinn asked hesitantly.

“Possibly. They’re in there now trying to discover what’s happened. I’m sorry,” she said as Quinn dropped his head into his hands.

“This is our first baby. I can’t believe this is happening. I’d only just left her after the first scan. Fuck . . . I feel sick,” Quinn said weakly as his body shook.

Deanna watched him in concern and then looked over at Nate who was looking stricken and unsure what to do. As their eyes connected she saw in them the torment that Nate felt that this might have been them.

After a few minutes Nate decided to go and get them all a drink and Quinn left to speak to the receptionist, trying to find out any information. Deanna sat staring at the wall and her mind could finally think properly for the first time.

She jerked upright as she clearly remembered that the car purposely aimed for them, or more importantly, at her. There was no way it was a runaway car or simply an accident, the car was on a direct path and if it hadn’t been for Nate’s quick reactions she would have been hit.

Misery filled Deanna
