Replacement Bride Left With His Baby (Sophia and Easton) novel Chapter 314

314 Chapter 314

314.Chapter 314

Stella was floored, totally in disbelief. She thought, ‘Why would Derrick suddenly snatch my kid? What reason could he possibly have?’

But then it hit her. She thought, ‘Derrick is here to help Sophia, and the Weston Group has been chasing the Crestview Group for ages. Now that he is back and has figured everything out, maybe he really did take David.

“If that’s really what happened, telling Easton might be my best bet to actually get the kid back.’

Stella grabbed her phone and dialed Easton.

But Easton never answered her calls anymore, so now she could only contact Gordon.

“Ms. Weston, what can I do for you?” Gordon answered.

Stella faked a sob and said, “Gordon, David’s missing. Please, go tell Easton right now. Ask him to help us look for David. We’ve already called the cops, but the cameras around here didn’t show a thing.”

As soon as Gordon realized it was about David, he didn’t hesitate for a moment: he bolted straight to Easton’s office.

After hanging up, Stella’s nerves finally started to settle. She booked her ticket and waited at the gate, trying to keep herself together before boarding.

Just then, her phone lit up with a message from Alex.

He sent over a bunch of surveillance photos. The figure carrying the kid really did resemble Derrick from behind.

Stella had never actually met Derrick face-to-face, but she’d definitely seen his face on the news.

With these so-called “proofs” in hand, Stella finally had an excuse to make trouble for the Roth family. As soon as she got back to Jenston, she was ready to show up at the Roth residence and cause a scene.

Without a second thought, she sent the photos to Gordon and told him to look into it.

She let out a cold laugh, thinking, ‘Easton is so protective of David, and Derrick actually has the nerve to mess with David? He really doesn’t know his place.

‘Perfect. Now, Sophia can see for herself just how worked up the guy she’s into gets over me and David.’

‘Back in Menolia, Stella had already stirred up trouble between Sophia and Easton by picking up Easton’s call without asking. Now, she couldn’t have asked for a better chance to get them fighting all over again.

Meanwhile, back in Jenston, Alex smirked with a devilish grin as he scrolled through his phone. He thought, ‘Stella really is a fool. She’s the perfect scapegoat to take the fall for me.’

The whole kidnapping? That was all Alex’s handiwork. He’d hired a guy with the same build as Derrick, dressed him up identical clothes, and sent him to the mall just to stir up trouble. Alex felt pretty damn pleased with himself.

Ever since Derrick took over Crestview Group, Alex had someone shadowing him 24/7. Derrick was good at giving them the slip.

But today, Alex finally got lucky: he found out Derrick was meeting a client at the mall café, and immediately started plotting his next move.

The café was right next to the indoor playground.

Alex had already bribed Stella’s maid to bring David over and deliberately walk him right by Derrick, just to set up a whole fake scene and make it look like Derrick was the mastermind behind the whole thing.

Even if Derrick wanted to prove his innocence, it would take him a long time to dig up any real evidence.

No matter what Easton did next, Alex had just one thing in mind: sow chaos between Easton, Derrick, and the Roth family, keeping Derrick tangled up in drama.

As long as Derrick was distracted, the Weston Group would have a window to go after the Crestview Group again. Even if Easton and the others managed to get to the bottom of things, realized it was all a misunderstanding, and even found the real kidnapper, Alex would just dump all the blame on Stella.

Alex had a whole stash of evidence on his computer showing Stella scheming against Sophia time and time again. She’d be stuck holding the bag, whether she wanted tournot
