Something cold moved through me.
“What did he want?”
Jenna unlocked her phone.
“He said there was a problem with the doctor’s envelope.”
“What kind of problem?”
“He claimed the result was wrong.”
I stared at her.
“How would he know?”
Jenna didn’t answer.
Instead, she opened security footage.
Mark appeared on the screen.
Standing at the bakery counter.
But he wasn’t alone.
A woman stood beside him.
Dark hair.
Long beige coat.
Maybe thirty.
I had never seen her before.
She handed something to Jenna’s coworker.
Another sealed envelope.
“What am I looking at?”
Jenna swallowed.
“They paid us five hundred dollars to use the result in that envelope instead.”
I stared at the screen.
Then toward my backyard.
Mark was laughing with his brother.
Lauren stood nearby.
My stomach turned.
“What did the original envelope say?”
Jenna hesitated.
“Your daughter is having a boy.”
