Crossroads

Chapter 25
Dominick wondered in confusion, “Stephanie went missing?”
After she left Reed Villa, she didn’t return to the hotel and suddenly vanished without a trace.
Vincent was also helping to search for Stephanie and couldn’t help but complain, “What on earth is Stephanie up to? She doesn’t even pick up her phone. Is she doing this on purpose to make us search for her?”
Dominick gazed at the slowly setting sun in the sky, his stern face masking his emotions, feeling somewhat irritated.
Scott hurriedly parked the car in front of the hotel and leaned out to shout to Dominick, “Dominick, we’ve found her. She’s at the cemetery…”
Dominick pondered in bewilderment, ‘She’s at the cemetery?”
When Dominick arrived at the cemetery with the others, he immediately recognized the wornan squatting in front of a tombstone in the west section of the graveyard. It was none other than Stephanie herself,
Dominick then approached her with a complex expression and heavy steps
He stood beside Stephanie and scolded her sternly, “Stephanie! What on earth are you trying to do? Are you intentionally making everyone worried, trying to cause a frantic search to satisfy your vanity? Don’t play this trick with me next time, Stephanie. If something happens to the child, you won’t be able to handle the consequences.”
Stephanie suddenly looked up and shouted with resentment, “I know! I know! I’m just a tool for bearing children to your”
When Dominick met Stephanie’s tearful and reddened eyes, his eyebrows furrowed slightly
Afterward, he glanced at the tombstone in front of Stephanie, which bore the name Madison Clark, Dominick then realized that this was the grave of Stephanie’s mother.
As the sun began to set in the west, the sky started to darken. Meanwhile, Dominick and Stephanie just looked at each other in silence, making the already gloomy cemetery seem more cerie
After a long while, Dominick coldly said, “Let’s go back.” His voice was much calmer than before.
Stephanie did not respond to him. She was still squatting in front of the tombstone, unwilling to leave.
Dominick looked down at her frail figure and inexplicably felt annoyed. He scolded her, “Stephanie, what’s the matter with you? Stop acting spoiled and throwing tantrums. I have no patience with women!”
“Come back with me!” He repeated sternly.
“I don’t need you to tell me what to do.” Stephanie kept her head down, her gaze fixed on the photo of her mother on the tombstone, her eyes brimming
with tears.
Dominick was frustrated. “Your mother passed away six years ago. Don’t tell me that just because you returned to Reed Villa today, you’ve become sentimental. I don’thave time to keep an eye on you, Come back with me right now!”
He really didn’t have much patience for women and bent down and simply pulled Stephanie to her feet.
But, for some reason, she was being stubborn today. With her eyes red and swollen, she clung tightly to her mother’s gravestone, refusing to let go.
Stephanie cried out, “I won’t gal I don’t want to! I won’t let you force me. None of you can force me…
