Crossroads

Chapter 345

Samantha was just overly anxious, and a temporary spike in blood pressure caused her to faint. Her health wasn’t seriously affected. When Stephanie entered the ward, Samantha had already woken up.

*Steff, how is your dad now?” Samantha asked anxiously as soon as she opened her eyes.

Diana was stunned for half a second, not knowing what she was asking.

Stephanie turned her head and glanced at the hospital bed, taking a deep breath. “Does Grandma know, like me, that I’m not Cary’s biological daughter?”
