Tonight Her Love Ended novel Chapter 283

A twenty-minute drive took exactly seven.

Nova didn't wait for the car to fully park before shoving the door open and sprinting toward the building.

Seeing her in such a frantic, reckless state, Chuck didn't want to intrude, but he was too worried for her safety. He quickly followed.

On the way up, he had tried calling Tristan, only to find the phone was turned off.

He trailed Nova to an apartment door. When a woman finally opened it...

Chuck recognized her immediately. Wasn't this the nanny holding the baby at the CN Dynamics office a few days ago?

"The baby just fell asleep. Why are you here so late?" the nanny asked with a nervous, ingratiating smile, a flicker of guilt flashing in her eyes as she looked at Nova.

*Smack!*

The sharp crack of Nova's palm against the woman's cheek echoed in the hallway.

Nova shoved past her and bolted inside.

Chuck immediately stepped up, pinning the nanny against the wall while kicking the door shut.

"Why did you hit me?! Let me go!" the nanny shrieked, struggling. But she froze the second she felt a cold, hard object press menacingly against her forehead.

Before Chuck could even issue a threat, Nova staggered out of the room, looking utterly deranged as she clutched a baby to her chest.

Chuck recognized the child instantly—it was the same baby Tristan had been holding in the car that day.

"She might have been given sleeping pills. Please, Mr. Clayton, take us to the hospital!" Nova's voice violently shook.

She hated herself in that moment.

She wished more than anything she could take the baby's suffering onto herself.

"Okay, head down first," Chuck said, nodding tightly.
