The moment I found out that Jayden Woods was Jesse Nelson, I couldn't help but suspect that the current Thelma must be his sister, Hallie Nelson.
After all, he could change his name, so it was normal for Hallie to change her name.
After investigation, it was indeed as I had expected. Thelma was indeed Hallie.
I had never expected that the siblings would be adopted by the Woods family in the welfare institute.
The reason was that Jayden looked like their deceased son.
The moment Celia Woods saw Jesse, she felt that her son had come back to life.
Moreover, she thought that Jesse not only looked like her son, but he was also loyal. Originally, the couple was only going to adopt one child, but Jesse was unwilling to be separated from his sister.
Therefore, the Woods family adopted both siblings. Although the Woods family was not considered a big family, adopting another child was not a burden for them.
The couple even changed their surnames.
Although the Woods family already had a son, Blake Woods, the couple treated their adopted son and daughter exceptionally well.
It was because Blake had been weak and sickly since he was young. It was said that he would not live to adulthood.
Unexpectedly, Blake's body seemed to have changed after the two children were adopted.
Even though he was still not in good health, Blake's parents were satisfied. They even felt that it was all thanks to their adopted son and daughter that their son could live safely until now.
I asked, "Do you know when Jayden started dating Juliet?"
Sophina tilted his head and looked at me as if she was recalling the topic just now.She thought, 'Weren't we talking about Ivan? Why did she suddenly turn to Juliet and her boyfriend?'
She shook her head and her expression changed slightly. She asked in a low voice, "Laurel, are you suspecting that Juliet did not lose her memory at all, so she has been pretending? But why did she pretend?"
Actually, I found it strange too. The police had already closed the Rosemary Read case, but Juliet was still pretending to have amnesia.
I originally thought that she would use her amnesia to return to Yolanda and find an opportunity to win Beckham's favor.
Unexpectedly, Juliet returned to the Hill family. Even Fiona was temporarily staying with the Hill family.
I felt that something was wrong. Even if Juliet wanted to attack the Hill family, with Fiona around, she probably did not have the guts.
Now, she even agreed to date Jayden, which was even more unexpected.
After all, Jayden was just an adopted son of the Woods family. No matter how outstanding he was, as long as Blake was not dead, the Woods family's assets would not be handed over to Jayden.
With Juliet's temper and personality, she would not be willing to marry Jayden.
The more I thought about it, the more confused I felt. Sophina handed over the cake she had bought.
I took a big bite. It tasted good, but I couldn't take a second bite. I quickly took a big gulp of water and suppressed the nausea rising in my stomach.
After a while, I looked up at Sophina, who was at a loss, and smiled. "Can you buy some oranges? I want to eat something sour."
Sophina quickly nodded. When she turned around and walked to the door, she stopped and said with a serious expression, "Laurel, don't... don't go out."
I nodded. There were two people guarding the door. I couldn't leave even if I wanted to.
Moreover, this was the VIP ward of the hospital. It was impossible for ordinary people to come in. Even if they came to look for me, they would have to get the approval of the two bodyguards at the door. When Sophina left, she closed the door.
I took a deep breath and lay back on the bed in boredom. Then, I started scrolling through my phone.
Originally, I wanted to see if the shares of the Parks Group had decreased again, but I suddenly realized that a piece of news had jumped to the top of the trending searches. A school bus suddenly went out of control on the bridge.
At that critical moment, a silver-black Maybach blocked the school bus. Then, the black car braked and finally forced the yellow school bus to stop. The black car later fell into the river.
I sat up abruptly from the hospital bed, took a deep breath, and called Alex with a trembling hand. No one picked up for a long time. I repeated the video of the traffic accident.
After confirming that the car was the one that Alex had sent me to the hospital with, a chill ran down my spine.
Then, I called Lawrence. Less than a minute later, the other party picked up the call.
However, there was a commotion on the other end of the phone.
I took a deep breath and pretended to be calm. "Where is Alex?"
After a moment of silence, Lawrence replied in a low and hoarse voice, "Mrs. Herrera, Mr. Herrera's car fell into Ocean Bridge. The police are trying their best to save him now. Don't worry, he will definitely be fine."
"Alright, I understand. Let me know immediately if there's any news." After a while, I came back to my senses from my incomparable hesitation.
The hand that was holding the phone tightly trembled slightly.
I thought, 'Why did such a traffic accident suddenly happen on the road from the hospital to the company?
'Also, how did the school bus lose control? Moreover, the students in the bus were all students who had returned from an outing.
'Who would joke about those children's life? However, if it was really an accident, wouldn't it be too much of a coincidence?'
My mind went blank. At that moment, my phone vibrated.
It was a message from an unknown number. [Laurel, you're a jinx. You've killed the people around you one after another.]
I stared blankly at the message on my phone and couldn't help but frown.
I suddenly felt that the other party was right. Too many people left me during this period of time.
Alex almost died trying to save me. And this time, it was also because of me.
If he hadn't sent me to the hospital, perhaps he wouldn't have encountered that accident. Then, he wouldn't have risked his life to save those kids.
At the thought of this, I felt a dull pain in my heart and instantly felt suffocated. The next second, the door of the ward was pushed open again.
Ivan walked in with a pale face, holding his phone anxiously. "Something happened to your husband."
I raised my head slowly and looked at him. I nodded calmly. "I know. He'll be fine."
The corners of Ivan's lips curled up. After a moment of silence, he said again, "Laurel, you'd better be prepared in advance. It's best if you leave this place as soon as possible."
"What do you mean?" I looked up at Ivan in confusion.
"If you want to keep the baby, go back to the Parks family now."
After all, he could change his name, so it was normal for Hallie to change her name.
After investigation, it was indeed as I had expected. Thelma was indeed Hallie.
