Chapter 158
Men aren’t allowed in the OB/GYN department, so after Austin brought the pregnant woman in, he went to the waiting area.
But when he turned around, he spotted Eleanor’s angry glare and jumped a little, backing up several steps before stabilizing himself.
“Eleanor, how come you’re here?”
“What about you? Weren’t you supposed to be in your hometown repaying debts? How come you’re here?”
Facing Eleanor’s questioning, Austin was obviously flustered since he didn’t expect Eleanor to know about his hometown trip.
But considering the sisterly bond between Hailey and Eleanor, Austin shouldn’t be too surprised that they share almost everything, which annoys him a bit.
Having married Hailey, Austin can’t help but be cautious about every move he makes since Hailey and Eleanor share almost everything between themselves.
Once he calmed down, Austin replied without changing his expression, “I did go back to my hometown to repay debts, but I happened to find my sister feeling unwell, so I brought her to the hospital.”
Austin’s hometown is located just outside A City, so a three–hour drive is enough to get there. It makes sense, but…
“Your sister?”
Did Austin have a sister?
Austin pointed at a woman sitting in the OB/GYN area, “That’s her, she’s pregnant and couldn’t attend the wedding, so you probably haven’t seen her. Hailey knows about her but must’ve forgotten to tell you…”
Austin’s words appeared a tad sarcastic, seemingly hinting that their sisterly bond isn’t as strong as it seems.
Eleanor didn’t ask any more questions but her view of Austin had changed. She walked towards the elevator and didn’t close the door immediately. Instead, she hid in a corner and watched the OB/GYN area.
Austin thought Eleanor left, so he waved at the pregnant woman sitting in the OB/GYN area, and she got up and walked towards him.
He whispered something to her, and she playfully shook Austin’s hand, while he scratched her nose affectionately.
Their interactions seemed really intimate, far from being siblings, but more like long–time lovers.
Eleanor recorded everything and quickly texted Hailey, asking about Austin’s sister.
Hailey replied almost immediately: “He does have a sister, but I’ve never met her. Why?”
Eleanor typed back, “Nothing much, I ran into them at the hospital, and Austin brought her to the OB/GYN.”
Hailey frowned after reading Eleanor’s message, “OB/GYN? Isn’t he supposed to be in his hometown?”
Eleanor then explained using Austin’s words, to which Hailey’s expression got a bit better. However, she still found it strange that Austin. didn’t inform her about his return and brought his sister to the hospital, clearly not wanting to let her know.
Feeling suspicious, Hailey asked Eleanor, “Which hospital are you in?”
Eleanor sent her location, and Hailey said okay before hanging up to drive to the hospital.
Eleanor was recording the video but didn’t send it directly to Hailey. Not because she wanted to hide anything, but because she wanted Hailey to come and confirm it herself.
If Austin did betray Hailey, the video Eleanor had would be strong evidence, and by sending it to her later would make it more convincing. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
With Hailey still a bit far away and worried that Austin might leave after their consultation, Eleanor looked for a spot they couldn’t see to sit down.
After almost half an hour, the pregnant woman left the department, and Austin escorted her to the inpatient area with his arm.
Eleanor got up and followed them, watching Austin complete the formalities before helping the pregnant woman into her ward.
