Crossroads
Chapter 51
Chapter 51
Around eight o’clock in the evening, Stephanie returned to the hotel from the milkshake shop. After taking a bath, she lay on the bed, but she could not fall asleep.
Jessica is Regina’s biological daughter?” she pondered, clutching the quilt tightly.
Regina Smith, the owner of the milkshake shop, was a single mother with a daughter named Betty. However, Stephanie had never met Betty. All she knew was that Betty dropped out of junior high and often stayed out late.
It turned out that Jessica was Betty Smith.
It seemed that Jessica had undergone plastic surgery and also hid her true identity from Dominick. But why did she lie to him?
‘Should I tell Dominick?‘ Stephanie hesitated, glancing at her phone.
However, Dominick was still away on his business trip to Paente, and he disliked others meddling in his affairs with Jessica.
Thinking it over, Stephanie’s expression darkened. ‘Forget it. I don’t want to get scolded for no reason.’
However, there was another matter…
“At that time, you were working part–time in my shop. You’re probably aware that many of your male classmates only came to the shop for you. But there was a man who was different…” Regina’s words from earlier replayed in Stephanie’s mind.
“No wonder there were always massive orders whenever I was on the night shift,” she mused, remembering her high school days.
That year, she had just left the Reed family’s care. Refusing to rely on them financially, she juggled school and her part–time job, where she often worked the night shift in her senior year due to the heavy workload of her classes in the morning.
But every time she worked the night shift, strange things happened. Salesmen would show up and order over a hundred cups of milkshakes, claiming it was for their company or charity events.
Regina would come over to help with the large orders, and afterward, she would ask Stephanie to return home to rest. Those night shifts usually lasted only two hours, yet she received the highest commission.
“Who sent those men to buy the milkshakes?‘ she wondered.
Too tired to dwell on it, Stephanie decided to let it go. Back then, she was focused on her studies and work, with no memory of that
mysterious man.
She woke at five o’clock the next morning.
Stephanie sat on the edge of the bed for a moment, realizing the early rising habit she had picked up from when she stayed at Wellington Villa. Turning her head, she cast an awkward glance at the spot beside her…
Surprisingly, thoughts of Dominick crossed her mind.
Swiftly finishing her breakfast and packing her bag, she then prepared to visit her grandmother at the hospital. Strangely, she felt a growing sense of belonging with Wellington Villa, but she couldn’t pinpoint when this feeling had taken root.
However, as she stepped out of the hotel lobby, she unexpectedly encountered someone familiar.
