Her Answer
After what felt like hours, Mrs. Wood eventually appeared alongside Natalie from the bedroom… And she’s in tears. With a combination of resentment, disappointment, and annoyance, Darren gritted his teeth and gently asked the social worker if he could do something more for her. He was angry at the insinuations this lady was tossing around, and now she’d cry to his baby. But his burning concern was: what precisely did Natalie tell her?
Her Answer
Desperation
Mrs. Wood assured Darren that she would “be in touch” as Darren attempted to console Natalie. “I told her what I told you, dad,” she sobbed. “Every morning, I wake up with these marks, and I don’t know how they got there!” he brought her to the hospital, and they’d run blood tests. He’d informed her what directly happened. He’d blamed his girlfriend. Darren was losing, getting more desperate by the minute. It wasn’t lining up here. He vowed to figure out what it was. But still, want to know the answer?
