Stella clutched the coat, and her breath was hitching with emotion. The nurse struggled to get the garment out of Stella’s hand and called for her to let go.
Snapping back to reality, Stella released her grip and apologized.
The nurse found that Stella’s behavior was odd, but she was in a rush to wash the coat. So, she did not dwell on it much and left.
Suddenly, Stella’s phone vibrated in her bag. She answered the call and whispered, “Come up to the twelfth floor.”
Felicity arrived promptly.
Stella shared her discovery with Felicity, who was astonished. “Did you get a clear look?”
“Felicity, that coat is the same size as the one Keegan wore, and it has bloodstains on the back. I don’t believe this is just a coincidence. I feel like Keegan is here. I can feel it.” Stella responded in excitement.
Felicity was always supportive of her best friend. Although she found that the situation was odd, she said, “Then, let’s go in and see what that wolf is up to!”
Stella had considered the possibility of Keegan being held captive there before arriving at the hospital. Initially, she thought of waiting for Jaylene to leave before entering.
However, now that she knew there was a good chance Keegan was here, she could not wait another second.
With determination, Felicity pulled Stella and opened the door to the ward.
The bed in the ward was empty. Jaylene, who was standing by the window, turned to the sound. She looked puzzled.” Stella, what are you doing here?”
Before Stella could speak, Felicity got straight to the point.” Where’s Keegan?
Where are you hiding him?”
“Huh? What are you talking about?” Jaylene asked in a confused manner.
