Crossroads

Chapter 267
Stephanie got up very early today. She quickly washed up, changed clothes, and didn't even have breakfast. She hurriedly took a taxi to a place she was very
reluctant to go.
"Is Dr. Rowen in Dr. Matthew Rowen."
It was obvious she had arrived too early. The sky was just beginning to lighten with a gray hue, and most of the doctors hadn't started their shifts

The nurse in the emergency room glanced at her and, seeing no obvious injuries, spoke with an annoyed tone. "If you need to see a go to the right to register and queue. We can't specify which doctor you'll see in the emergency room.

"I need to see Matthew urgendy"
The nurse thought she was being unreasonable and tried to send her away with a cold voice. "Every patient want to see doctor, but doctors are human too. They need to eat and sleep, or they won't have the energy to treat you."
Seeing that Stephanie was still standing there, the night-shift nurse felt a bit irritable, her expression turning sullen. "Dr. Rowen doesn't work in the emergency department. If you need to see him, please wait until 8 AM and go to the main building."
Matthew was quite renowned in the hospital. A top-tier doctor recruited from overseas like him wouldn't be stationed in the emergency roo
Stephanie paused for a moment and immediately retorted, "I saw him here last time, I swear!"
FODIL
"Then you must have mistaken him for someone else. Dr. Rowen isn't part of the emergency department," the nurse responded, completely losing patience. "We're very busy here with many patients needing treatment. Please move aside."
Stephanie took a few steps back and sat on a metal chair by the corridor. Her expression was somewhat dazed as she looked up at the digital clock on the wall, which showed 5:30 AM. It was indeed very early
But was it just that she was still groggy, or did she really remember incorrectly? The last time when she sprained her ankle, it was definitely Matthew who bandaged her...
Yesterday, she had overheard Oscar and Mason's conversation. They seemed to have taken a USB drive with a video file from Matthew. She didn't know what the video was, but Matthew was already very suspicious, and now even Oscar was looking for him. There was definitely something going
"Ms. Reed, is your foot still not healed!" A sweet, youthful voice sounded above her head
Stephanie looked up to see a young nurse intern in a light pink uniform. "Are you talking to me?"
The nurse smiled a bit awkwardly. "I know you. Dr. Rowen bandaged your foot last time." She paused for a moment and added, "Also, after you left that day, that man came back looking for you."
"That man
probably meant Dominick.
Given Stephanie and Dominick's striking appearances, it wasn't surprising that the doctors and nurses remembered her. This young nurse even took the time to look up her name
"Are
you Dr. Rowen's friend! He doesn't come to the emergency department often. He's been sent abroad. Didn't you know!"
Matthew had been assigned abroad.
Stephanie left the hospital, her mind in turmoil. That intern didn't seem to be lying, so Matthew was likely no longer at this hospital, though she wasn't sure if he had indeed been transferred abroad.
Who had taken him away?
She sat on a stone bench outside the h

frustrated. She should have questioned Matthew earlier.
"Mass, are you interested in applying to our company?"
She had been walking for two hours on her way back, lost in thought and not feeling tired. As she reached Eastwall Plaza, a tall woman suddenly approached her, holding out a flyer.
Stephanie tried to walk past her, but the woman persisted, following her for quite a while. "Miss, your image is perfect for our company's influencers. The influencer industry is booming right now, and you'll make a fortune.......
"I'm not interested in money, Stephanie said bluntly.
Herstraightforward rejection piqued Lucy's curiosity. “Life is all about making and spending money. Otherwise, what do you live for?"
Stephanie felt the question strike a chord deep within her. Yeah... What did she

She stopped walking and turned to Lucy. "I don't know,"
She truly didn't know what she was clinging to in this muddled state.
Stephanie's gaze swept over the bustling crowds in Eastwall Plaza, Everyone was busy with t what about her? A self-deprecating smile touched her lips, bitter

Lucy studied her for a long moment, raised an eyebrow, and handed her a business card. "I am Lucy Wallace. Keep this. You might need my help. someday,
Ms. Reed."
The woman named Lucy shoved her business card into Stephanie's hand. Before Stephanie could react, Lucy had already walked away.
"How did she know I'm Ms. Reed?" Stephanie frowned, quickly scanning the
business card. Lucy was likely a professional name. Who was she? She was clearly not a foreigner, but her accent was a bit strange.
Stephanie instinctively wanted to follow, but a familiar voice called out to her from another direction.
"Stephanie!" It was Yvonne.
to embrace her tightly.
Stephanie was taken aback. Yvonne seemed overjoyed, as if they were reunited
after a long separation, and rushed over to e
"Stephanie, why didn't you come home?" she asked directly.
Stephanie felt uncomfortable being held like this. She didn't know how to respond
as she looked into Yvonne's innocent gaze. "Yvonne, what are you doing!" a harsh voice echoed from the opposite walkway.

turned to look at Mary on the path, immediately releasing Stephanie and taking a step back. The woman in

Stephanie watched as Yvonne timidly walked over to Mary's side, not daring to utter a word of protest
Usually, Stephanie would force herself to greet Mary intimately, but now the
words wouldn't come. She raised her head and silently met the gaze of the elegant woman before her.
"What a rude woman, Mary remarked. She had never seen anything good in
Stephanie.
Stephanie didn't want to engage and simply turned to leave, but Mary wouldn't let
it go. "Don't forget to sign the divorce papers," she called after her.

Stephanie had already reached the curb and hailed a taxi, but hearing Hayley's
voice, she couldn't help but turn back. She thought that if Hayley was the one married to Dominick, Mary would surely be pleased. "Stephanie, did you know Dominick can play the piano? Mary taught him when
he was little. He played for us yesterday, and it was beautiful. The Wellingtons are very happy now, and we hope you won't disturb him." Every word Hayley spoke was laced with deep-seated sarcasm.
Stephanie's face remained expressionless as she climbed into the taxi and firmly
shut the door.
The car quickly pulled away, leaving Stephanie staring blankly out the window.
Dominick used to hate the piano so much. Perhaps it was a good thing that he had forgotten her, along with those unpleasant childhood
