Chapter 321 The Baby Shower
I locked eyes with Stella. “If you don’t want people to know what you’ve done, it’s best not to provoke me.”
I walked out and addressed the doctor who had escorted me in. “Sir, could you please take me back?”
He calmly nodded. “Certainly.”
I was worried that leaving the doctor there might put him in danger.
Back in the car, a wave of nervousness washed over me, causing my hands to tremble. I turned to the doctor and said, “I’m sorry for involving you. They won’t harm you, will they?”
“No, it won’t be that serious,” he replied. Then he started driving.
“How is his condition?” I asked the doctor, still feeling concerned.
“You saw it yourself.” He glanced at me. “The injuries to his limbs aren’t too serious, but the head injury is
severe.
“So when do you think he’ll wake up?”
His response was ambiguous. “That depends on how he responds. It could be anytime.”
We reached the spot where we had switched cars earlier. The other car was still waiting. I thanked the
doctor and returned to the car that had brought me there, and we parted ways.
In the car, I decided to call Nick. Then, I explained the situation to him with a heavy heart.
Nick fell silent, then said, “Go back and rest.
Surprisingly, I soon ran into Stella again, this time at Matthew’s party. I couldn’t help but wonder why
Stella was there. She and Matthew had no apparent connection. In private, though, I couldn’t be so sure.
Matthew had been flaunting his project with a connection to Celine, so it wasn’t unreasonable for Stella
to attend the celebration.
Many influential people in the local construction industry came to the party. Matthew had made a big scene a few months ago during our anniversary celebration. Now, he was throwing a lively party for hist son with his mistress. He no longer cared about his reputation.
I was unsure what the guests were thinking, but I was sure most were there to watch. My presence made no difference, but I had no choice. Matthew had sent Johnson to pick me up.
He wanted me to bring Ava along so he could show off his perfect family. However, no matter how confused I was, I wouldn’t bring my daughter along to such an event.
Besides, how would this drama play out?
