Chapter 162
Upon hearing Hailey’s remark, Allysha, who had intended to continue mocking her, abruptly fell silent.
Hailey softened her gaze and turned her attention to Austin. “Since I still have to work the night shift,
please take care of my sister.”
Austin nodded, reaching for the car keys, “I’ll drive you.”
“No need, I came here by car,” Hailey declined, prompting her to leave the ward hand in hand with
Eleanor.
Once they were out of earshot, Allyshaposed herself and addressed Austin. “You could have just
exined the situation. Why did you have to return the 200,000?”
Austin nced outside to ensure they were at a safe distance before responding. “If I hadn’t returned
the money, she probably wouldn’t have believed me.”
Allysha snorted coldly, her pretty face contorted with resentment. “How much longer do I have to wait?”
Austin walked up to her and rubbed her belly, soothing her: “Honey, as soon as she finishes paying the
mortgage, I’ll bring you to the city.”
Upon hearing Austin’s reassurance, Allysha’s resentment gradually turned to certainty.
After leaving the ward, Eleanor sent Hailey the previously recorded video and reminded her: “Austin
told me before that his sister didn’t attend your wedding because she was pregnant and inconvenient,
but when he just exined it to you, he said he only found out about her pregnancy today. His words
seem reasonable, but they contradict each other. You should be more careful, something seems off
between him and his sister…”
Seeing the video of Austin stroking Allysha’s nose in the same way, Hailey’s expression suddenly
darkened.

“It’s not just a bit off, it’s an affair!”
“They’re siblings, it couldn’t be that serious, could it?”
“Who knows if they’re even real siblings?!”
Hailey put away her phone, gritting her teeth: “I know nothing about his family. Who knows if he’s just
deceiving me?!”
Eleanor also agreed, nodding her head: “The problem lies with his family. It’s unreasonable not to let
the new bride visit her inws.”
Hailey immediately tried to act, “I’ll go to his hometown and ask some neighbors to find out the truth.”
Eleanor quickly grabbed her hand and advised: “Don’t go there alone, it’s too dangerous.”
Who knows what the situation is like in Austin’s hometown? It would be too risky for Hailey to go alone.
Eleanor advised her to calm down: “Don’t be hasty, I think that Allysha is an emotionally unstable
person. Find an opportunity when Austin isn’t around and provoke her a little. She might just confront
you directly.”
Hailey thought for a moment and agreed that it made sense. Earlier in the ward, Allysha had almost
lost her temper multiple times, and if it weren’t for Austin stopping her, she would’ve probably already
started fighting with Hailey. It would be safer to confront Allysha when Austin isn’t around than to go to
his hometown alone.
When Hailey calmed down, her expression became much more peaceful: “Eleanor, you were going to
get some medicine from Dr. Terrill, right? You go ahead and get that first.”
Eleanor was still a bit worried about Hailey, but Hailey reassured her: “Don’t worry, I’ve been through a
lot before. It’s just that…”
She sighed deeply: “I thought that if I found an honest person, he wouldn’t betray me, but now I feel…”
She didn’t finish her sentence, but the disappointment in her heart made Eleanor even more worried.
Her little face was all scrunched

Hailey smiled and patted Eleanor’s cheek: “Don’t be so anxious, now that I have money, I’m not afraid
of anything.”
Speaking of money, Eleanor’s worry only increased: “And you’re putting all your money in one bank
card? What if something happens
Hailey interrupted her: “I’ll transfer my pre–marriage assets outter. From now on, I’ll be like him, only
depositing my basic sry in that card. As for the mortgage and living expenses, let’s use the basic
sry first, and if that’s not enough, let him pay for the rest…”
