Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO

Chapter 73: Is It True?

After getting dressed and leaving the house, Martin was barely halfway down the road when Stefan’s brows furrowed. He tapped the edge of the car door absently, deep in thought.

"There’s something I forgot," he said quietly when he suddenly remembered a file he and Ruby had returned home a night before his accident.

Martin glanced at him through the rearview mirror. "Sir?"

"There’s a file. I brought it home just before..." Stefan paused, his fingers grazing the bandage near his temple. "Before the second accident. It was important. I need it today."

"Should I turn around?" Martin asked wanting to be sure he had heard properly.

Stefan nodded. "Yes. Let’s head back."

The car made a smooth U-turn, and within ten minutes, they were pulling into the driveway. Stefan didn’t wait for the car to come to a full stop before opening the door. He stepped out and walked briskly toward the house, something inside him suddenly restless.

He went straight to his study first. Papers were neatly arranged, books stacked the same way he left them. He opened the drawers, checked the lower cabinet, even lifted a few files he knew weren’t the one he needed—just in case. Nothing.

He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. Then his gaze shifted toward the stairs. Maybe he left it in the bedroom, he thought as he headed upstairs.

He climbed the steps two at a time and pushed open the bedroom door. Ivy stood by the mirror, adjusting a thin scarf over her shoulders. Her earrings shimmered as she turned to face him.

"You’re back?" she asked, surprised. "Did you forget something?" she asked with a slight frown.
