The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 110

Chapter 110 Breaking Points.

“You. Lillian’s eyes widened, her chest tightening with disbelief.

She couldn’t believe it–the man on the other end of the call was this cold, this heartless.

“I need money too, he said flatly.

And just like that, whatever hope Lillian had been clinging to shattered completely.

The helpless, pitiful act–one she’d used countless times on the Reed family with near–perfect success–had always worked

Until now. It failed.

She couldn’t believe it. It didn’t work? “You’re seriously trying to push me to the edge?”

“If you die, the Reed family can at least afford you a nice grave. He added coolly.

Because right now, they needed money–for treatment.

Lillian’s voice exploded in the room. “You heartless bastard!”

Her scream echoed through the hospital room. In that moment, she wanted to kill him.

Meanwhile, Ethan had just arrived at the hospital.

As soon as he stepped off the elevator, he spotted Susan on the phone, her voice sharp and trembling with anger. “You want me to sign papers cutting ties with you? Stella, how could you be this heartless?”

She couldn’t believe Stella actually meant it.

Susan had thought all that talk about cutting ties was just out of anger–not something Stella would really go through with. She was wrong. Stella meant every word.

Over the phone, Stella’s voice was icy. “The lawyer is already on the way to the hospital with the documents.”

Her tone was emotionless–empty.

In that moment, Susan realized something chilling–there wasn’t a shred of warmth in Stella’s voice. No hesitation. No hint of attachment. It was like the Reed family meant nothing to her.

The thought made her chest tighten, made it hard to

Two years… Had I really never made it into Stella’s heart? Not even once? T breathe.

“You cut off the Reed family, and then what? Who do you think you are? Sure, those men are backing you now, but that won’t last. Right now, it’s all excitement and novelty. But give it time–once they realize you don’t really fit into their world, they’ll leave you behind.”

The sudden collapse of their mother–daughter relationship sent a wave of panic through Susan.

Somewhere deep down, Susan didn’t actually want to lose Stella.

Stella’s reply was razor sharp. “Whether I get left behind or not isn’t your problem. Just sign the papers.”

And with that, Stella hung up.

Especially with those last words–Susan heard it loud and clear. There was a threat behind them.

Her hands trembled. Her head spun. She was shaking-

sign it too. What is she even thinking? Does she really have to turn this into a full–blown disaster?”

At that moment, Susan had nothing but complaints about Stella.

+8 Pearls

In her mind, the family was already going through enough–why couldn’t Stella just stop pushing? Or maybe it was because of that studio job–the one that pulled in nine hundred eighty thousand last year?

If she really thinks that’s her golden ticket, then she’s more short–sighted than I thought. Business is all about timing and luck. Just because she made money last year doesn’t mean she’ll pull it off again. And the wants to cut off the family over that? So dramatic.

Susan narrowed her eyes. Let’s see how long she can keep this up

“Forget it. Let her do whatever she wants,” she muttered. She didn’t want to talk about Stella anymore. If Stella wanted to cut ties, line. Let her.

But when Susan remembered the outcome of the call she’d made earlier to Eddie and Rianne’s assistant, her mood soured

even more,

Her face, already grim, darkened further.

Just then, Jonathan walked up. Seeing both Susan and Ethan looking serious, he frowned. “What’s going on now?”

Susan sighed and replied, “What else? Stella. She just called me out of the blue–for the first time in two years–and it was to tell me she’s cutting ties. Told me to sign the paperwork.”

Two years, and now the first thing Stella had to say was that she wanted out of the family?

Jonathan’s expression turned cold, “She’s really going that far?”

He had thought she was bluffing, that once she cooled off, she’d come around. But now it was obvious–she had never planned to forgive them.

Susan let out another deep sigh, then turned to Ethan and Jonathan. “What’s the update on her studio? Any updates on shutting it down?”

Silence.

Neither Ethan nor Jonathan said a word.

Even mentioning Stella’s studio made their expressions tighten.

They had clearly underestimated her.

She hadn’t just built that studio from the ground up–she actually knew how to keep it going.

Thinking about the responses from Stella’s business partners only made Jonathan and Ethan look even more grim. Stella had no intention of backing down.
