The One I Should've Married (Stella and Sebastian) novel Chapter 168

He genuinely couldn't fathom who in the city would dare attack a member of the Sinclair family so brazenly.

"It could be that person from abroad!" Eleanor reasoned. "That wretched Stella! It must be because she scammed that person out of 1.5 billion, and they pinned the debt on Lawrence!"

Just mentioning it made Eleanor furious enough to half-die.

She wished she could hack Stella into a thousand pieces right now.

Arthur also thought it was highly possible, and his hatred for Stella deepened.

"It could also be the man she found seeking revenge!" Eleanor added. "After all, she was at the Vance estate last night, and we don't even know which hospital she's passed out in right now."

With the Vances making a move, she had definitely lost half her life!

It was truly a shame that this opportunity was wasted, and Julian hadn't been able to take advantage of it to bring her back to the Sinclair estate.

Hearing about Stella's man, Arthur's face darkened even further!

No matter which angle they looked at it, Lawrence being beaten like this was inextricably linked to Stella.

Whatever, they would settle the score once she was back at the Sinclair estate!

Seeing Arthur too furious to speak, Eleanor asked, "Is the Sinclair Group really in that much trouble right now?"

Arthur remained silent.

It was better not to mention the Sinclair Group! Because bringing it up...

"If Stella returns to the company as soon as possible, we might still be able to stabilize a few projects."

Even though he hated to admit it!

He had to acknowledge that those partners were only working with the Sinclairs because she was the granddaughter of the Channing elders.

Because of her divorce from Julian, they had considered terminating the partnerships!

So if she returns to the Sinclair family, the situation would take a turn for the better!

"I never imagined those two old folks would still have so much influence even after they died!" Eleanor noted.

"But with Julian in this state, how is he supposed to go pick her up?"

"Didn't you say she lost half her life too? Can she really afford to be picky about Julian?"

Right now, she should be grateful just to have a place that would take her in. She couldn't afford to be picky about Julian!

Hearing this, Eleanor nodded. "That's true. Then we need to hurry and find out exactly which hospital she's in."

"I've already made the arrangements!" Arthur grunted.

...

Meanwhile, at Channing Group.

Stella had been busy all afternoon. Just as it was time to get off work, Sebastian's message arrived.

[Come down!]

Even through the screen, she could feel Sebastian's unyielding refusal to let her work overtime.

A smile touched Stella's lips. As she packed her things into her bag, she typed two words back: [Right away.]

After the trip to the Vance estate.

She felt the distance between her and Sebastian had closed even further.

All her previous worries had completely dissipated.

Actually, even if she couldn't handle the Vance family herself, Sebastian wouldn't have let her suffer. Stella knew that.

But since she had spent the last three years with the Sinclairs, there had still been a sliver of apprehension.

As it turned out, not only did Sebastian believe her!
