Crossroads

"Anything related to Madison, I will destroy. You will never get it! After saying that, Courtney turned and ran outside the door, hercely throwing the silver necklace out.

Under the dazzling sunlight, the necklace sparkled with silver light, thrown far away until it fell and disappeared.

Just as Courtney threw the necklace, Gary stumbled heavily towards it.

He widened his eyes, watching the necklace fly through the air, then vanish.

It seemed destined. He reached out into the air, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't grasp what he wanted.

Gary's heavy body crashed to the ground.

"Dad" Stephanie instinctively cried out in panic.

Courtney turned back, her initial excitement and resentment gradually calming down, Fear surged in her, her body stiffening When the ambulance arrived, the family doctor and Samantha had just arrived as well. Seeing this scene, Samantha was so frightened she could barely stand, rushing frantically towards Gary.

"What happened? Why can't I wake Cary up! Why is his face so pale?"

Samantha wailed and screamed, Stephanie mechanically helped a nurse carefully lift Gary onto o the stretcher for emergency treatment.

Samantha rushed over, shaking Stephanie, repeatedly asking, almost in tears.

Stephanie seemed unable to think, remaining silent. Her right hand still fech some of Gary's warmth. She had just touched Gary's rough palm, which was very cold Diana's eyes were red, suppressing the fear in her heart, but her voice trembled. She supported Samantha, murmuring constantly. "It's okay, Gary will be fine."

Samantha tightly held Diana's hand, both of them clinging to each other, their hearts filled with unease. Samantha blubbered. "Is he really gonna be okay? But why is the blood coming out of his nostrils! He looks so painful. He's still vomiting. What's wrong with him? He was already cured"

Stephanie felt cold all over, turned around, and calmly told Diana, "Diana, stay home to take care of Grandina I go to the hospital with the ambulance Seeing the severity of Cary's condition, the doctors and nurses dared not delay for a moment, immediately lining him imo the ambulance. Stephanie climbed into the vehicle but was pulled down by Courtney Stephanie was startled by the sudden pull and fell off the vehicle. She got up, looked up, and shouted at Courtney. "Courtney, what are you doing! Are you trying to kill my dad?" In a flash, Courtney slammed the door of the ambulance shut.

The doctors and nurses ignored their dispute. For them, saving lives was a race against time The siren of the ambulance sounded, making people anxious.

Stephanie immediately drove the family doctor's car to chase after it. Diana and Samantha insisted on getting in the car as well. No one spoke in the car. In such a critical moment of life and death, their hearts raced in panic.

The ambulance stopped at a nearby large hospital, and Stephanie, unable to drive into the hospital's emergency passage, had to park outside and then run after it As she anxiously looked around in the crowded hospital emergency area, she heard a doctor say urgently. "His cerebral blood vessels ruptured, massive bleeding

"He's still vomiting Turn him on his side. Don't let the vomit choke him.

"His prapily are dilated. No consciousness. Prepare for surgery immediately"

Stephane saw the pale Cary on the hospital bed, hearing what the doctor said. She felt like she was in a dream. The hospital lights seemed too bruch, and everything made her feel unreal She thought. Tocant be. He can't just leave without even a lot word.

didn't want, nor was she willing to accept such an ending Hatred and blood ties didn't matter anymore.

She just didn't want this kind of ending She was afraid of such a painful separation, bating the helplessness of being unable to control things.

In an instant, she thought of that man, Dominick. Stephanie didn't understand why she thought of him in her most desperate and helpless moment.

And her body reacted faster, her trembling hand pulling out her phone and dialing that familiar number.

That call seemed to inject the last bit of hope into her life. But she kept waiting.

But in the end, the call hung up automatically, and only the busy tone replied to her.

The doctors and raises had prepared a temporary operating room and quickly wheeled Cary in.

Courtney didn't cry. She kept running alongside the hospital bed, and Stephanie, seeing them move, also frantically followed.

Courtney suddenly shouted at Gary, "Gary, you can't dic. I know, Madison didn't die in prison. You sent her out, right?"

Unable to contain her inner panic any longer, Courtney burst into tears. "Gary, do you hear me? Your Madison is not dead. She will come back. Don't die. Don't... Please. I beg you"

Finally, Courtney's body went limp, and she knelt down, her head lowered, crying in despair.

The operating room door closed, and the red indicator light came on, indicating surgery was in progress

Stephanie stopped outside the operating room. She straightened up, her emotions complex, as she looked at Courtney kneeling on the ground. She had never imagined that Courtney could cry so bitterly. At that moment, Courtney was not pretending.

"Get away!" Courtney's voice was hoarse, but her demeanor was haughty.

She stood up on her own, wiping away the tears on her face. She was like a professional actress, able to change her expression instantly as if all the grief just now was fake.

"Stephanie, your ivory tower has collapsed. You're in great pain and Courtney m despair, aren't you?erson, seemed like a different person, returning to her previous sinister self, clenching her teeth. "Without Gary and others protecting you from behind, your future life will be even more painful, even more desperate."

Stephanie just quietly looked at her, not speaking.

There was a row of empty seats in front of the operating room, and large windows were all around. The walls were painted white, the fluorescent lights glaring. The whole space seemed enlarged. It was so spacious that even a whisper echoed.

Everything was too vast, too quiet Seeing Stephanie silent, standing still, indifferent, without any expression, Courtney became very angry.

"Stephanie, you're not Gary's daughter. You're not the Reed family's young lady.

Your mother was involved with another man." Courtney deliberately wanted to provoke Stephanie, emphasizing her words again. "Courtney, stop pretending. I know you're terrified right now."

Stephanie suddenly spoke, her clear eyes seemingly able to see through Courtney's soul, which left Courtney somewhat shocked and silent.
