Crossroads
Chapter 28
Chapter 28
In the guest room on the first floor of Reed Villa, Claire grabbed her phone and glared at the image of a man and a woman on the screen. “Courtney, look at this… What should I do now?”
She looked anxious as she pulled on Courtney, who had just entered the room. “Courtney, I can’t believe Kevin confessed his feelings to Stephanie. What should I do now?”
Although the video didn’t capture Stephanie’s and Kevin’s conversation clearly, his declaration, “Give me a chance, I was wrong” was loud enough, and gossip–hungry netizens had already started imagining all sorts of sentimental scenarios.
Courtney was shocked by the scandalous video, exclaiming. “Weren’t they emotionally estranged and already divorced? How dare Stephanie still try to compete with you!”
“Courtney, what should I do? I have a daughter now, and even if I were to marry someone else, people would look down on me,” Claire asked urgently.
Courtney scolded her, “I told you, you’re not mature enough. You’ve been back in the country for over two months, carrying Kevin’s child, yet you’ve wasted all this time and still haven’t secured him. However, Stephanie, who is a divorcee, has married Dominick and become a part of the Wellington family.” When she said the last part, her tone tinged with envy.
Claire responded, “Do you think I haven’t mentioned getting a marriage license to Kevin? I’ve brought it up several times, but he always says he needs to think about it, and he never looks happy when I mention it. Courtney, didn’t you teach me not to push men? I’m afraid of pushing him too hard.”
She then shook Courtney’s arm and pleadingly said, “Okay, enough is enough, Courtney. I’m really anxious now. Please give me some advice.”
“You”
‘re really useless,” Courtney said with an air of arrogance and a hint of smugness. “Back when Stephanie’s mother was the first heiress of the Clark family, I managed to drive her away just the same. Stephanie is nothing. She’s stubborn and doesn’t try to please others. Her grandmother and father don’t like her, she has no one to support her and can’t cause much trouble. Stephanie is easy to deal with.”
After saying that, she paused, and a sinister look crossed her eyes. Afterward, Courtney ominously added, “The most valuable thing about Stephanie right now is the child she’s carrying. You just need to…
Claire’s eyes widened slightly as she listened to Courtney.
“Could this really work?” Claire became frightened. “What if…”
“What if what? Don’t tell me I didn’t teach you what to do. If you’re not ruthless enough, you won’t be able to take anything and will end up crying with your daughter. Now, stop bothering me,” Courtney coldly instructed.
With that, she walked out, immediately switching to a flattering smile as she cozied up to Gary, calling him to dinner like a dutiful, kind wife.
Meanwhile, Claire stood by the door with her right hand clutching her phone tightly, her heart pounding chaotically.
Suddenly, she lowered her head and quickly tapped the phone screen, and soon, the videos were forwarded to another phone.

Just then, a phone chimed and vibrated a few times, indicating a new message had arrived.
At that moment, Vincent was in the ninth–floor VIP hospital room. She called Dominick, who was in the bathroom, “Dominick, you’ve just received a strange message. Just like the last photo, it was sent from a satellite phone SIM card.”
He chuckled teasingly, “Dominick, this might be another photo for you to catch someone in the act.”
