Chapter 237

The endless ringing on the other end of the phone left Selena feeling puzzled and anxious. Something felt off, and she couldn't shake the unsettling feeling creeping over her. Nibbling on her lip, she decided to call Dr. Campbell instead. He was Josh's doctor, and she figured he would have the answers she needed.

Callum answered immediately, his voice warm and reassuring. "Hey, Selena, everything okay?"

"Dr. Thompson, how's Grandpa doing today? Is he feeling alright?" she asked, trying to sound casual.

She had jumped to conclusions, thinking it was about Josh, but clearly, it wasn't. Suddenly, she remembered the gossip from earlier-Lola, the makeup artist, had mentioned something about Margot being pregnant, with complications, and staying at a high-end private clinic. Could Margot have been the one who called? And did Everett go to see her?
