“Wait, just a moment…”
Stephanie abruptly halted the taxi, but soon, a tinge of embarrassment crossed her face as she said, “Never mind, please continue.”
“Miss, you seem a bit pale,” the taxi driver remarked, casting a concerned glance her way.
Phanie offered a strained smile and assured him, “I’m alright.”
Her gaze drifted to the left window of the car, her expression tinged with disappointment.
A fleeting uncertainty gripped her, ‘Was it him, or was it not?”
“Why am I even concerning myself with him?” she murmured, her head bowed in frustration.
Upon returning to her suite in Royal Park Hotel, Stephanie checked the time. It was already eight in the evening.
Restless, she suddenly recalled something and rushed to the bed, grabbing the hotel phone to dial the internal line. “Hello, has anyone visited me during my absence?”
Despite the polite response from the hotel staff, her disappointment deepened. “Oh, I see. Thank you.”
She was even worried that he might miss her while she was out at the milkshake shop and had rushed back for him.
“Wait, why would I be worried that he missed to catch me here?” she thought.
An inexplicable stir of emotions coursed through her, leaving her bewildered.
“What is he so busy with?” Stephanie pondered, perched at the bed’s edge, eyeing her suitcase hesitantly. “Should I wait for him to return to Havencrest with me?”
Finally, after washing her face in the bathroom, she made a resolve. If Dominick failed to contact her tonight, she’d secure a flight back to Havencrest the next morning.
“Is it work or another’s company that consumes him?”
Knowing Dominick’s demanding schedule and the weight of responsibilities atop his shoulders, Stephanie couldn’t help but empathize with him. She often saw him working late into the night in his study

Lying on the bed, Stephanie scrolled through her phone, hesitating with something. “Would I disturb him now if I called him?”
Suddenly, a sharp pang
gwracked her abdomen, causing her to double over and drop her phone.
“Ouch, it hurts…” Stephanie winced, her complexion drained as she clutched her midsection.
Labored breaths escaped her as the pain intensified.
Beads of cold sweat dotted her forehead as trembling overtook her frame, thwarting her attempts to rise
