"Hey, guys, the hotel is not far from here. I'll take them there, let them rest, and then explore the night market nearby later. You two have had a busy day. You should head home and get some rest," Jaylene suggested.

Stella considered for a moment and agreed. "Sounds good. I actually have plans to meet a friend for a hair appointment."

After leaving the restaurant, Stella used the excuse of her friend picking her up to part ways with Trevor.

Not long after Trevor had left, a white Audi pulled up. Stella opened the passenger door and got in. The driver was her best friend, Felicity.

Felicity took Stella by surprise, as she was dressed in all black, along with a black mask.

"What's with the ninja outfit?" Stella asked.

"Don't you know that you've got to dress the part to avoid drawing attention?

Spies often wear black in old movies."

Stella rubbed her temples and said, "That's because there were no lights."

"Huh?"

"Wearing dark clothes made sense back then. But, nowadays, with everything brightly lit, you're like a walking beacon. How do you expect to stay hidden?"

Felicity then thought about it. "Fair point," she said, reaching for a men's coat from the back seat. "This should tone it down a bit."

Stella was speechless. She was about to say something when Felicity patted her arm. "Look! Look! Look!"

Stella immediately turned to see what her friend was referring to.

She saw Jaylene and the others exit the restaurant and exchange a few words at the entrance before leaving. Jaylene waited for a while before getting into a cab.

Felicity immediately started the car and followed the yellow vehicle.

The cab navigated through a city district and finally stopped near a hospital.

Jaylene got out of the car and went straight in.

Felicity needed to replace a parking space, but Stella could not wait. So, she went in herself.

Jaylene seemed very familiar with the place. As soon as she entered, she took the elevator directly to the top floor.

Stella glanced at the nearby sign. There were a total of nineteen floors in the building. The elevator that Jaylene took was going to even-numbered floors above the tenth floor, and the elevator next to it was for odd-numbered floors.

Coincidentally, at this moment, the elevator for odd-numbered floors arrived.

Stella went in and pressed the button to the eleventh floor.

Felicity had parked her car, and she texted Stella to ask where she was.

[Go up to the 10th or 11 th floor. Tty I.] she replied.

Stella was fortunate in her search for Jaylene, as she only had to check two floors.

Jaylene was holding a men's coat while talking to the nurse on duty.

Stella lurked in a corner and casually observed her every move.

After a few minutes of conversing with the nurse, Jaylene handed the coat to her, and the nurse returned to the ward.

Stella caught up to the nurse and pretended to accidentally bump into her, causing her to drop the coat.

"I'm so sorry." Stella quickly bent down to pick up the garment.

The garment was indeed a men's coat, and there were faint traces of blood on the back.

Stella's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly thought of the scars on Keegan's back that night. 1 "What are the chances that it's all just a coincidence?"
