My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 1004:

She couldn’t help but feel that she was the lucky one, as if she had been born with the aura of a protagonist, and the heavens had decided to shower her with special favor. When she had thought she had reached a dead end, a member of the Morrison family appeared. She had a strong feeling that this situation was somehow tied to them. The recent visit of her adoptive parents to the Morrison family and the sudden appearance of a Morrison representative at the doctor’s office seemed too connected to dismiss as a mere coincidence.

The closet was located some distance away, and even when she pressed close to the crack in the door, she could only hear bits and pieces of the conversation.

She quickly caught a few key words—Hinks family, Carrie, blood. Piecing together these clues, Alethea realized Carrie was the person her adoptive parents had been searching for.

Her instinctive dislike for Carrie now made sense; they were natural enemies.

Once the Morrison representative departed, Alethea waited for the doctor to leave his office before she darted from her hiding place. To evade security cameras, she wore a white lab coat and mask, kept her head down, and quickly exited the premises.
