Chapter 638
Stella’s breath was instantly sucked out of her chest. She turned slowly towards the voice and her eyes widened.
Aunt Diana…
She almost blurted out those words but managed to stop herself in time.
The woman walked up to her with eyes red and teary, saying, “Is it really you, Stella? I thought I’d never see you again…”
Yvonne was completely clueless as to what was going on, so she asked, “Who is this, Ella?”
Stella stood up abruptly and shook her head, saying, “I don’t know her.”
“You don’t know me? How is that possible? I’m your aunt Diana! Have you forgotten me?”
The woman wiped away her tears and turned around to address the man behind her.
“Honey, come here! Isn’t it Stella?”
“I’m really sorry,” muttered Stella. “You’re completely mistaken. I truly don’t know who you are…”
The man walked up with his hands full of shopping bags, and when his eyes fell on Stella, he was visibly floored.
But his reactions were much more subdued than the woman’s.
“Please forgive us, but you look very much like my niece,” he explained after a long bout of silence. “My wife must’ve mistaken you for her.”
“Your niece?” asked Yvonne. “Does your niece happen to be Stella Sealey?”
“Yes! Do you know her?”
“Well…” Yvonne glanced worriedly at Stella. “Yes, I do know your niece. But this woman is definitely not her. She’s called Ella Steele.”
