Yes, no one outside dared to touch Rianne, but Ariana of the Hale family could bully her at will.
And Tempest, swayed by Ariana’s explanations, always chose to believe Ariana in the end.
The next morning.
Stella was groggily woken by Marie: “Time to wake up, it’s time to get married.”
Stella opened her misty eyes.
The room had been lively last night, and they had talked late, so she hadn’t gotten much sleep.
Now that she was awake, Stella still felt incredibly sleepy.
She rubbed her weary eyes: “What time is it?”
“It’s already six o’clock. You need time for hair, makeup, and changing. We need to start preparing.”
Seeing Maric, Stella was still a little dazed: “Why are you in my bed?”
Marie: “Are you still half–asleep? We slept together last night.”
Stella: “Oh.”
Only then did she realize the room was full of people, including Rianne and Evie.
It was a miracle that Evie and Marie, being together last night, hadn’t fought.
Historically, whenever those two were together, it always led to a brawl.
The professional makeup team had already arrived.
Marie helped Stella get washed up, while Rianne looked after Tessa, and Evie kept an eye on
Rianne.
As Stella walked downstairs, Evelyn rushed back from outside, looking worn out from travel.
She was genuinely busy. Since Stella’s return, she had rarely been home.

Seeing Stella with her pregnant belly, Evelyn stepped forward: “Sweetheart, you are truly beautiful today.”
Stella: “I haven’t even put on makeup, Mom.”

“Still beautiful! Ever since you got pregnant, I’ve thought you look absolutely gorgeous, more beautiful than any other pregnant woman.”
Maric: “…” Just as expected, a mother thinks her own child looks good no matter what.
Tessa and Rianne, who had witnessed Stella’s reluctance to call Susan “Mom” back in Rivermount, knew her adoptive mother must have been very good to her.
Now they saw it: a sharp, successful businesswoman who showed unique tenderness toward Stella.
Seeing this, Rianne’s eyes were filled with sorrow and
She actually envied everyone who had a home…
envy.
Tessa noticed her distress and hugged her arm: “Rianne, how about I share half of my mom with you?”
Rianne forced a smile: “No need. I’ve gotten used to it.”
Since her father passed away, she had slowly been forced to accept the world’s indifference and gradually accepted loneliness.
By now, she had completely adjusted to the bitterness life offered her.
Yet, seeing Evelyn tenderly embrace Stella, she felt more than just envy.
She even felt a sense of familiarity when she looked at Evelyn’s face.
She couldn’t help but sigh. She had almost forgotten what it felt like when her own mother held her.
Tessa: “I’ll still share half of her with you.”

Hearing Rianne say she had ‘gotten used to it,‘ Tessa felt even more heartbroken for her.
Mona received another call from Reese.
On the phone, Reese sobbed: “Mom, what should I do? I’m so sad, my heart hurts so much.”
