Crossroads Confessions by Deirdre Augus novel Chapter 264

Chapter 264 

Suddenly, someone urgently knocked on the car window, startling Hayley and making her face go pale. 

She hurriedly closed her laptop, quickly pulled out the USB drive, and clenched it tightly in her hand. Then, she stiffly turned her head to look 

“Miss, you can’t just park your car in front of the hospital,” a security guard said. He’d started to scold her for blocking the hospital entrance but softened when he saw how pale and scared she looked. “There’s parking inside. Just head around to the left and you’ll see the entrance.” 

Hayley forord a smile and replied softly, 1 understand” 

After the security guard left, she finally loosened her grip on the USB drive, though she remained tense. “The babies are not dead, she murmured. 

The person in the video had said no one else could know about this, and she didn’t want any trouble, especially not from the Wellington family 

Stephanie was already disconnected from the Wellington family, and Hay 

Hayley couldn’t let her return. 

What was she supposed to do with this USB drive? And who was this “Dr. Rowen” working for! 

Another thought suddenly hit her, making her gasp. She frantically ripped a few sheets of paper from the dashboard box and scrubbed the black USB drive, making absolutely sure no fingerprints remained. 

She could ignore the strange C–section surgery and the doctor named Rowen, but she couldn’t be careless about Oscar. 

If he found the drive missing, he’d turn everything upside down to find it. 

Hayley pulled over and hurried back into the hospital. This time, her steps were quick and somewhat frantic. 

When she reached the empty area behind the pediatric ward, she quickly placed the black USB drive back where it belonged, making sure it looked untouched 

Then, she turned and walked away, telling herself to act like she knew nothing. 

Those two children were the bloodline of the Wellington family. 

If that video went public, it would cause a massive uproar. Hayley walked briskly, trying to suppress her growing anxiety. 

Once she was back in the car, she took a deep breath and started the engine, speeding away as quickly a 

as possible. 

By sheer coincidence, Vincent was on his way to the hospital and happened to be driving in the opposite direction. “Why is Hayley driving so fast even in the city?” he muttered. 

Although Vincent was a playboy and a good–for–nothing, his sharp eyesight was an asset. “She looks odd. What’s going on with her!” he wondered aloud 

Unfortunately, the man in the backseat remained silent 

Vincent was used to it by now. This Dominick was no longer the best buddy he’d known couldn’t help but mock himself internally.

It wasn’t until he parked the car at the hospital that he couldn’t resist asking. To Stephanie really in the hospital?” 

The man in the backseat got out of the car and walked away, ignoring Vincent and striding straight towards the emergency room from last night. Vincent had no choice but to follow. 

He couldn’t understand how Dominick had found Stephanie when he had clearly forgotten her, 

“The patient left the hospital without authorization,” the nurse said. 

Just when Vincent wanted to give Stephanie a piece of his mind, the nurse told him she had run off. 

“Didn’t they say she had to have five more IV drips today? How could she have run away! Vincent’s face darkened as he cursed angrily.

The nurse felt wronged after being yelled at by him, but only Vincent knew his real target was 

Dominick didn’t say anything, but his face was also grim. 

“Oh, and… A lady came by asking for you, the nurse told Dominick, not daring to ignore these two well–dressed men. Since she had delivered the message, she quickly excused herself. 

Hayley’s news network is squite efficient. She knew Stephanie was in the hospital before we

strange 

They soon left the hospital, not bothering to dwell on what might have caused Hayley’s behavior. It was unlikely she’d just been aimlessly wandering around. 

“Where were you last night? Did you run into someone!” Meanwhile, at Molly’s small apartment, she was scrutinizing the woman before her, asking repeatedly. “How did you sprain your ankle?” 

Stephanie stood outside the door, allowing Molly to scrutinize her with a murderous glare. 

Finally, her voice was slightly hoarse as she said, “I’m hungry.” 

Hearing this, Molly was livid! 

What kind of woman was this? They had been worried about her all day, and Stephanie didn’t seem to care at all. Then, Stephanie suddenly came back and ignored all her questions as if they were nonsense. Now, Stephanie even dared to say she was hungry! 

Molly was very angry and said harshly. “Stephanie, let me tell you. I’m not Dominick. This trick won’t work on me. You better confess honestly, or you’ll stay outside and never enter my house again!” 

“I’m going to pack up some things and find a place to move.” Stephanie obviously didn’t sense her anger and even responded nonchalantly, indicating that she was truly leaving.
