The Baby Shower


    I locked eyes with Ste. “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 nced at me. “The injuries to his limbs aren’t too serious, but the head injury

    After my argument with Ste at the reception, I was convinced that Kennedy’s death had something to


    do with them. I wasn’t afraid of Ste, but my biggest concern was As. He was in aatose state

    Surprisingly, I soon ran into Ste again, this time at Matthew’s party. I couldn’t help but wonder why


    Ste was there. She and Matthew had no apparent connection. In private, though, I couldn’t be so


    sure.


    Matthew had been unting his project with a connection to Celine, so it wasn’t unreasonable for Ste

    Many influential people in the local construction industry came to the party. Matthew had made a big

    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
