Stella received the news immediately after Isaac met with Lawrence.
The moment she stepped out of her meeting...
Asher approached her. Stella asked, "What did Vincent want?"
"He said he wants to move back into the Channing Estate!"
Stella rolled her eyes.
Stay at the estate?
He was absolutely dreaming...
"So all his subsidizing of the Steele family over the years was just feeding a pack of ungrateful wolves?"
Beatrice's brother's house was bought with money embezzled from the Channing Group.
And yet, just hours after being discharged from the hospital and heading to the Steeles'. He was already throwing a fit to return to the estate.
Honestly, he and that parasitic entity were a perfect match—both mindlessly gave everything away.
"Tell him not a chance!" Stella ordered.
"Understood. I already told him," Asher replied.
Hearing Asher's proactive response, Stella was thoroughly pleased. "Your ruthless efficiency is truly comforting."
Asher paused.
Was that supposed to be a compliment?
Thinking about the call he received right after Vincent's.
Asher's expression grew serious. "Isaac just went to see Lawrence."
Stella raised an eyebrow. "Did he kill him?"
He had definitely seen Carson's gruesome state!
And all the evidence pointed directly to Lawrence.
Knowing Isaac was in the city, Lawrence had to be the most terrified person alive right now.
Carson was taken from the Sinclair Group, and Lawrence's men were present at his death.
But Isaac was completely different from Carson!
This man was highly dangerous...
So, in her mind, was Isaac bold enough to murder Lawrence right in front of the authorities?
If that were the case...
Then Nathaniel's underworld was terrifyingly dark!
Asher shook his head. "No."
"Oh? Then what happened?"
"Nathaniel is coming to the city!"
Stella's eyes sharpened.
Nathaniel!
Their big boss...
So what exactly did Lawrence and Isaac discuss during their meeting?
Stella looked at Asher, gesturing for him to continue.
"I'm not sure what they talked about, but I'm guessing Nathaniel is coming straight for you!" Asher deduced.
"For me?" Stella asked.
"It's highly likely Lawrence used your blueprints to strike a deal with him."
The blueprints...
Those designs weren't just priceless; they were worth billions, if not hundreds of billions!!
Thank God the parasitic entity had no clue!
If she had possessed Stella's full memories, her love-struck brain would have handed those blueprints straight to the Sinclairs.
If that was the case, "He's definitely coming for me," Stella affirmed.
"And just half an hour ago, the Sinclair Group received a two billion dollar injection!" Asher revealed.
"From Nathaniel?" Stella asked.
"Yes!"
Asher nodded.
Stella was genuinely impressed that he managed to dig up such confidential information from Lawrence's inner circle.
Especially upon hearing the words 'two billion dollars,' her eyes instantly lit up.
"The Sinclair family must be feeling incredibly smug right now!" Asher stated.
