"A date."
That was Glenn Hutchinson's succinct reply, although conveyed with a hint of nonchalance.
The pen fell from the doctor's hand with a 'clink.' His complexion shifted slightly, and after a moment's brewing, he bent down naturally and picked up his own signature pen.
Flossie Wright, who was standing idly by, glanced surprisingly at Glenn Hutchinson, only for him to feign a smile. She didn't give much thought to it and allowed him to blurt out whatever pleases him.
Even as an outsider, she would not fall for his casual claims.
So, the insights-worthy doctor sat upright near the office desk again after picking up his pen and said teasingly, "Surely, it appears less likely to be a date, more similar to a case of domestic abuse."
Who gets this injured during a date? A gunshot face-to-face sounds more plausible.
If they really were in a relationship, only domestic violence could have caused such wounds.
