Chapter 410

Chapter 410

I arrived today with Russel, riding in his car. It wasn’t until I climbed in that I remembered I didn’t have the car keys.

So, I had to go back to the hospital to get the keys from Russel. I knew he was working there and that he was still in the department of cardiology, but I couldn’t remember where exactly. It took me a while to find it.

“Dr. Russel is in surgery,” a nurse informed me.

“I understand.” I had no intention of waiting. I might as well have called for a cab.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I noticed Russel’s phone on a desk. That must have been his spot.

Recalling how Karina had answered his phone before, I impulsively walked over and picked up the phone.

I didn’t know the passcode, but I tried Russel’s birthday. It was wrong.

I tried my, Serena’s and Brandon’s birthdays as well but they were also incorrect.

The phone got locked after three unsuccessful attempts and required ten minutes to unlock. With a belly full of suspicions, I put down the phone and left.

To say I didn’t have the slightest suspicion about Russel would be a lie. But I had to admit that he had been good to me and my children. He wouldn’t harm us.

When I left the hospital, Ryan and Faith were nowhere to be seen. Karina was also gone, but Neil was waiting for me.

The street lights outside the hospital were dim, blurring my vision. I glanced at Neil, choosing to ignore him, and prepared to hail a cab back home.
