Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 152

I gave a slight nod as a form of greeting.

Jaylan addressed me again, "Allie, you should head back."

It was clear they had something to discuss among themselves.

"How can I leave when I don't even know what's going on?" I stubbornly insisted.

Jerome, with a light chuckle, chimed in, "Aaliyah, the whole family is here. You should go pick up the kids. You can trust us to take care of everything here. This is a hospital, and in times of pandemic, it’s not good for you to stay here for long. Taking care of the kids is the top priority."

I glanced around the Dawsons, not a soul missing. "Seems like I am the only outsider here."

Without further ado, I grabbed my bag and made my way to the exit.

Jessica, with a hint of insincerity, walked me to the door. "Take care, Allie. I'll be here tomorrow, so you won't have to come. You need to rest."

"Thank you, then," I replied without turning my head, and left the hospital.

Once I was in my car, I tried to piece things together, then dialed Clara. She answered instantly. "Did Zora send that video?" I asked.

"I don't think so. Jaylan hasn't been to our place these past few days," Clara assured me, "But Zora has the video now. As far as I know her, she wouldn't hesitate to use it."

"Try to convince Zora to find a chance to show it to Jaylan. Make sure Zora will have what she wanted this time," I advised, "And prepare yourself. Jaylan will want to know where the video came from once something happens."

"Don't worry, Allie! I've got a story ready. The timing is just right," Clara confidently replied.

After a few more words, I hung up and drove away from the hospital. I called Logan to update him on Jaylan's situation. To my surprise, he already knew.

"You already knew it?" I asked.

Instead of answering, he hung up and sent me a link.
