Chapter38
“Three days later, The Ethereal Voice‘ had its first livestream, and that was when your nightmare really began.”
“You would lose everything, and I would take over all that was yours.”
“Stephanie, you couldn’t beat me!”
***
The other side.
Northpine Hospital.
McKayla, who had been waiting outside the emergency room for a long time, finally heard something.
She jumped up when she saw the emergency room door open.
On the other side.
Maxwell was driving. Outside the car window, the trees were rustling in the wind.
The weather forecast said there would be wind tonight.
There were just shadows of trees under the dim streetlights.
The time in the car changed from 23:59 to 00:00.
He suddenly hit the brakes.
He just paused for a moment, then turned around right away and drove the car quickly toward the hospital.

There were few cars on the overpass late at night, and the Aston Martin sped down the lane.
With the last press of the brake, the car stopped downstairs at the hospital.
He looked up at the building that was still brightly lit late at night, his lips pressed together.
He took out his phone, found Stephanie’s number, and called her.
“Sorry, the number you dialed…”
The next moment, his call was hung up.-
Called again, the call got hung up again.
Maxwell got McKayla’s number and was about to call her.
It wasn’t until then that he realized McKayla had called him when he was taking Roxanne home, but he didn’t pick up.
With a slight frown, Maxwell touched the call button.
Still got hung up on.
He looked at his phone, editing a message to send out.
It was just…
When he was editing, he hesitated.
How should he ask?
“Knock knock.”
The car window was knocked on.

Maxwell looked up and saw Patrick in a white lab coat.
His brows furrowed a little, Maxwell rolled down the window.
Patrick shook his phone.
He said, “If you wanted to know about Stephanie, just go up and see for yourself, don’t call again.”
Maxwell squinted his eyes a bit: “I’m his husband.”
Patrick gave a mocking laugh.
“So you still knew you were her husband,” Patrick said, “but I heard Kayla say you wouldn’t be for much longer.”
Maxwell gripped his hand tight and looked at Patrick, who was standing outside the car window with a mocking look. He said, “This has nothing to do with you.”
“Of course it had something to do with me.”
Patrick leaned in a bit, playful and dangerous: “Kayla said, since she got into a fight and made you push Stephanie down the stairs, she wants to give me, her brother, to Stephanie as compensation.”
Patrick laughed, “I thought it was pretty good.”
“Patrick!” Maxwell’s fists were clenched tight.
Patrick didn’t answer, just stood there quietly looking at him.
After a long time, Maxwell said, “Stephanie asked you to come tell me this?”
After getting caught acting with McKayla, she went to Patrick?
Is this her new trick?

The smile on Patrick’s face slowly faded, his cold eyes fixed on Maxwell: “Mad?”
“Maxwell, you needed to know, Haraville didn’t just have you, Maxwell, as a man.”
“She was also someone I watched grow up. I knew her charm, just as well as you did, not any less.”
“If you liked Roxanne, then you should have stuck with Roxanne. Whatever happened with Stephanie, you shouldn’t have cared.”
Patrick answered calmly.
“Maxwell.” Patrick made up his mind and said word by word, “The only thing you could do now was let her go.”
Just now, it was an emergency and someone needed to sign the critical condition notice, but when the nurse came out to look for someone, only McKayla was waiting outside.
Stephanie’s dad was gone, and she wasn’t close to her mom either. The only person she could turn to was Maxwell, her husband. But the one who pushed Stephanie down the stairs and left with his mistress was also Maxwell.
Even so, McKayla still tried to call him, but he didn’t pick up.
Finally, McKayla used an emergency and her status
the dean’s
daughter to forcefully sign the critical condition notice, and said she would provide the authorization letter later.
Watching Maxwell’s face get tenser and tenser, Patrick sneered inwardly.
He already gave Maxwell a chance.

As long as Maxwell went to the hospital building now and asked about Stephanie’s situation, it meant Maxwell still cared.
But he didn’t.
Since that was the case, I just said it straight out.
Watching Maxwell close the car window with a cold face and drive away, Patrick showed no happiness or sadness.
The strong wind in the early morning lifted the hem of his white coat. Watching the Aston Martin turn the corner, he shook his head and let out a soft sigh.
