The One I Should've Married (Stella and Sebastian) novel Chapter 163

In the end, Beatrice had no idea how she stumbled out of the company, an overwhelming sense of humiliation crashing over her.

She took out her phone and, with trembling fingers, dialed a number!

The person on the other end must have been busy. It rang three times before being picked up. "What is it?"

The man's deep voice carried a hint of tension!

"I need to see you," Beatrice suppressed her emotions, her voice slightly choked.

It was too much. Stella was taking it way too far.

How could she treat her like this?

She had been married to Vincent all these years. It was bad enough Stella never called her 'Mom', but to humiliate her like this now?

Hearing her demand a meeting, the man over the phone grew anxious. "What's wrong with you? We already..."

"If you don't come see me, I'll go make a scene in front of her!"

"You wouldn't dare!"

'Her' meant the man's wife.

Hearing Beatrice threaten to cause a scene with his wife made the man panic instantly.

"You know everything that's happened to the Channings over the past few days, don't you? Do you really think there's anything I wouldn't dare do right now?"

She had lost everything. She had absolutely nothing left to lose.

She only felt helpless against Stella.

If she had any leverage against Stella, she wouldn't have resorted to seeking out this bastard again!!

"I'll be waiting for you at The Kumquat Lounge!" Beatrice declared. "If you don't show up, you know the consequences!"

She threw down the words and hung up the phone directly.

Turning back, she cast a final glance at the entrance of Channing Group. At that moment, Beatrice felt entirely hollowed out.

Three years ago, when Vincent became the chairman here.

She thought she would be the lady of Channing Group for the rest of her life. But now, because of Stella...!

Stella was truly capable!

She withdrew her gaze.

Just as Beatrice was about to turn and leave, Asher returned from outside. Seeing her, he stepped forward. "Ms. Channing!"

Seeing Asher, Beatrice's expression soured.

"What?"

"I forgot to remind you last night. You need to return the money you owe the company as soon as possible."

"What money?"

In an instant, Beatrice's voice pitched up.

She stared at Asher in shock and fury, her brain short-circuiting at the word 'owe'.
