Crossroads

After the forced and viclent encounter. Vincent awkwardly realized that his injuries had indeed improved significantly.

On the other hand, Molly pestered Stephanie, persistently asking about Oscar Stephanie said, "Oscar was also really awkward the first time. He even wore clothes that were so big to cover up all those bruises and marks."

"Did you also drag him over, pin him down, and forcefully apply the balm to him?" Molly, for some reason, felt a bit excited at the mental image.

"Yes," Stephanie replied bluntly.

Molly became even more animated. "And when he grew up, did you guys still..."

"You all like him, don't you?" Vincent interrupted them with a sarcastic tone.

"Of course! You know what Oscar is like, she said and then thought, 'He is a heartthrob! Treating his wounds and caring for him is just too cool Molly's heart was fluttering. Among the few handsome guys she knew, Dominick was too intimidating, and Vincent was too much of a playboy, so Oscar was the best. She had the fortune of spending time with him before, which was so exciting Vincent's face darkened, and he wanted to defend himself, but right then, his phone rang. He initially intended to ignore it, but a glance showed it was someone important.

Vincent picked up the phone, his expression cautious as he walked to the balcony before answering.

"Mr. George Wellington. He greeted solemnly.

Maybe it was the intimidating presence of the Wellingtons. Even over the phone, Stephanie and Molly immediately fell silent after exchanging a look.

Dominick's grandfather is calling Vincent?' Stephanie couldn't help but glance at the ceiling, then back at Vincent on the balcony, wondering why the elder was calling him.

"I don't know what Dominick has been busy with lately. It might be something at the company."

"I asked Scott and the others, but they don't know either."

"Didn't Dominick return home for Christmas! Hasn't he been hack recently?"

The apartment was so quiet that Vincent's voice from the balcony was audible. "I checked, but I still don't know where he's staying."

Molly cavesdropped intently, tugging at Stephanie's sleeve and whispering, "Mr. George Wellington is asking Vincent about his grandson. Looks like Dominick hasn't been home in a while"

Stephanie's expression was complicated. She watched Vincent with a look of hesitation. She stood up and walked closer to him, opening her mouth as if to say something.

She knew where Dominick was

"Thump, thump, thump... Suddenly, the sound of someone playing basketball echoed from the ceiling above.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Stephanie froze, looking up at the trembling ceiling, Just as Vincent hung up the phone, he frowned irritably while Molly started cursing. What kind of person plays basketball at home?"

Vincent couldn't stand the noise. "How can you live in this dump? Move out tomorrow!"

The constant sound of basketball dribbling from the floor above drove him insane. Stephanie, having grown accustomed to it, seemed contemplative but not angry. With a scowl, Vincent headed towards the door. "Damn it, I'm going up to see which fool is making this noise."

"People living in such a haunted house upstairs might b be gangsters." Molly tried to dissuade him. "Don't n make a big deal out of it. If they retaliate..."

"Retaliate! Let's see if they have the guts!" Vincent was furious, contemplating buying the whole building just to stop the noise.

"There is no neeil for that." In an unusual display of patience, Stephanie pulled Vincent back and pushed him onto the sofa. She calmly handed him a cupeof coffer. Til handle the person upstairs"

As soon as star said this, the noise from the basketball stopped, as if the person upstairs realized they had truly crossed a line, Molly found i

magical.

"Crazy," Vincent muttered, glaring at the ceiling before sipping the coffee, his anger slightly abating, Stephanie nodded in agreement. She had been the victim and was often on the verge of storming upstairs.

After thinking it over, she added, "He's probably just bored and trying to get some attention."

Molly looked at Stephanie, suspecting she knew the person upstairs quite well.

After dinner, Molly made milkshakes. Stephanie's mood improved as she sipped the sugary treat, and even Vincent's scowl softened, Andy was delighted and took out his phone to snap several photos of them.

Molly casually advised, "Kids shouldn't play with phones too much. It'll mess up your mind when you grow up"

"It's my dad's phone," Andy retorted.

It was getting late, and it was time for the kid to go home and sleep. Before leaving. Andy made a point Molly. I'm not like my dad. If you're mad. just be mad at him. Don't ignore me, I'm innocent."

His serious tone, pretending to be a little adult, made everyone laugh.

"Andy really likes you." Stephanie noted as Vincent and the kid entered the elevator. She closed the door, leaving just the two women in the apartment, ready for some heart-to-heart conversation.

Stephanie said, "Molly, you and Scott...

"We're just friends," Molly replied awkwardly.

Stephanie scrutinized her silently, sensing Molly's uncertainty. Molly sighed,

"We're really just friends, We've talked it through. Dragging out feelings isn't good. I know how to handle it."

"You say that, but do you really... Stephanie believed that when it came to dealing with emotions, even women often didn't believe their own words.

"Stephanie, I can take care of my own issues. You should figure out your own feelings first. Molly seemed to avoid the subject and change the topic you think fending Oscar and Vincent's injuries is just a habit. Have you considered that the someone staying by your side might feel insecure, thinking they're just a habit too? Stephanie, you don't understand love."

Stephanie was left stunned as Molly waved at her and left.

"You don't understand love. Her aunt, Diana, had said the same thing to her.

She hated all this talk about love. Her grandfather used to say, "Whoever is good to you, be good to them in return. It's that simple."

He feels insecure... Stephanie pondered for a while, staring at the ceiling. Surely Dominick couldn't feel insecure. Someone like him! Impossible"
