Crossroads
Chapter 281
Chapter 281
Stephanie woke up with a sneeze.
She had dawdled until midnight the previous night before finally falling asleep. Just as the morning sun was barely making its appearance, her phone began buzzing incessantly with messages from the Innovate Group’s staff, reminding her to be at the airport on time. Today, she and three other models were scheduled to fly to Harlington for a photoshoot.
ང་ཧ་ཨཱཇཅ་༠ 。:
Clutching her phone, Stephanie was taken aback. She had genuinely forgotten about this.
“Okay,” With her characteristic sluggishness in the morning, she mumbled an acknowledgment and obediently went to brush her teeth.
“Stephanie, are you coming down with a cold?”
To her credit, before leaving, she remembered to call Molly. Perhaps it was her slightly nasal voice that prompted Molly’s concern.
“I’m on my way to the airport now. Looks like I’ll be staying in Harlington for three days.”
Seated in the taxi, Stephanie complained while on the phone, “Vincent is so afraid I’ll get fired that he had someone wake me up before dawn.
“Wait, the Innovate Group’s staff doesn’t fall under Vincent’s management, right? Does the Innovate Group provide wake–up services?”
With her mind still a bit foggy, Stephanie sneezed again, grabbing a tissue to cover her nose. The wake–up call matter seemed not worth pursuing further.
“Damn it, Stephanie! You said you were going to eat and drink your fill. Did you know Dominick didn’t attend the banquet, so you ran off too? You heartless…” Molly’s voice from the phone was filled with resentment.
Dominick didn’t go to the banquet either?
Just hearing that name put Stephanie in a bad mood.
“Hey, what were you up to last night, getting yourself sick? Will it affect your shoot?” Molly’s tone softened, worrying about her friend.
“I spent the night on the balcony in the cold wind…” Stephanie recalled the foolish things she had done last night, her voice trailing off. “I suspect the tenant in Unit 502 upstairs is someone I know.”
“What’s with Unit 502?”
“Never mind.” Stephanie’s expression became complicated; she didn’t want to talk about this.
“Oh, by the way, Oscar told me you were with Scott last night. Did he drive you home?”
Now, it was Molly’s turn to avoid the topic. She stiffened, answering, “Yes, we came back early.”
The two women, each preoccupied with their own thoughts, ended the call as Stephanie informed Molly that she was almost at the airport. Molly, with her innate caretaker instincts, reminded her once again to stay safe before hanging up.
