Erick was taken aback, not knowing why his ever-obedient wife would speak against him today.
He lowered his voice and said, “I understand, but it’s a big day for our family. We family as her support. You’ve always been good with words.
I know you can do it.”
He paused before continuing, “I’ve worked hard all these years for you and our on the verge of turning our lives around. Let’s not mess things up at such a crucial time.”
Olivia scoffed inwardly, ‘He’s been making empty promises for so many years. I feel like throwing up just by listening to his voice now.’ She held back her surging anger, lowered her gaze, and said softly, ‘Til give it a try then.”
However, before Olivia could go anywhere, Lena came out of the room. She said, “Stella is fine for now. She said today is a big day for the Chapman family, and she’s willing to wait until the ceremony is over before finding out the truth.”
Lena’s words took everyone by surprise.
‘She bled so heavily, yet she’s okay with not finding out the culprit right away?’ Dahlia found it unbelievable. But then she thought about how Stella would only pick on people weaker than her and figured that she probably backed down Felicity was dumbfounded, “Did Stella damage her brain from the fall?”
‘This is such a perfect opportunity to deal with Dahlia. Why would she let it slip away?’ Felicity thought to herself.
She immediately caught up with Lena, “Stella has bled so much; is she really okay? Shouldn’t we take her to the hospital?”
Lena replied flatly, “She’s fine for now. I’ve contacted the hospital, and the ambulance will be here shortly.”
When Felicity was about to say something more, she heard Lena adding, “You can come inside to check on her if you’re worried.”
