The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173 What Did You Think I Was Gonna Do?

It was already late.

Lillian stared at Susan, almost dazed. “Mom. Ethan just said… we shouldn’t see each other for the next few days.”

Susan’s face froze.

Then she quickly tried to explain it away. “Didn’t I tell you? The Keene family has a big deal in the works right now. He’s probably just busy.

“No… it’s not just that. He never bought Verdant Villa either.”

A whole week had passed.

And in that entire week… he hadn’t done anything?

Susan’s face stiffened. “He didn’t buy it? But didn’t he say he did? Didn’t he say he was even changing the curtains to the kind you like

Lillian didn’t respond.

Yeah, he had said that. Said the curtains would be exactly the kind she liked.

So what the hell was he talking about earlier?

After a night of chaos

While the Keene and Reed families were scrambling. Stella slept like a baby.

She got up early, originally planning to head to her studio.

But Abraham brought her to the hospital instead.

Stella looked confused. “Why does Madam Alice want to see me?”

Madam Alice.

She was the elegant older woman who’d come to the hospital before to help Abraham. Last night, she’d called and said she really wanted to see Stella.

So this morning. Abraham had brought her over

“Probably because she likes you” Abraham said.

“Huh! But we’ve only niet twice. Don’t tell me she has a grandson?”

That was usually the reason older ladies wanted to see a girl again.

Abraham fucked

He reached over and gently pinched her cheek. “If that were the case, you think I’d bring you here?”

Well, she usar back then But now?

The thought made her glance over at him.

The car pulled to a stop

Abiel will go with you, Abraham said.

Finished

She’d already noticed an extra driver in the car this morning. She figured Abel had something else on his schedule Didn’t expect it was to escort

Abel got out and politely opencil her door.

Stella looked at Abraham. “I’m going

She had just turned to step out when he called her back, his voice low and deep, with a hint of… something unspoken.

Stella turned “What is it?”

Abraham pulled her gently back in.

Her back pressed against the car door, and his hand came toward her chest.

The sudden motion made every muscle in her body tighten up.

Her face flushed red on the spot.

Her voice trembled. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

Her heart was practically leaping out of her throat.

Then she felt him tug at the fabric over her chest.

She looked down–and saw his hand, slow and steady, fastening the undone button on her shirt.

He even double–checked it after, muttering. “The buttonhole’s too loose. Don’t wear this againTM

Her face turned even redder

Then he pulled off the scarf from his neck and wrapped it around hers. The ends draped down perfectly, covering the area.

When he led up again, her face was completely flushed.

Abraham fruze. “Why’s your face red?

She turned to get out of the car.

But the moment she did, he caught her wrist.

With a gentle pull, she tumbled straight into his arms.

“Abraham-” she started.

But he just chuckled low above her.

“You really have grown up, he murmured near her ear. “You even know how to get shy now”

“Stop it

He punched her cheek, not letting her go. “Come on, tell me what exactly did you think I was going to do?”
