The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185 Accusations in the Steam.

“Yes, sir.”

Valery followed respectfully.

They were gone.

Ethan turned to Jason. “What’s the name of the Luke family’s heir again?”

There’s barely anything online, but I think the last name is Dawson.”

Ethan’s expression soured at that.

But he didn’t dwell on it.

“Why was Stella here?” he asked, tone clearly sour.

“It’s probably a coincidence,” Jason replied. “This trip was last–minute, and nobody knew. Maybe she came with Mr. Louis?”

At least he’d never leak Ethan’s whereabouts–that much he was sure of

Still, after saying it was probably a coincidence, Jason could feel the chill rolling off Ethan in waves.

Especially the idea that she might’ve come with Louis–that was hard to swallow.

“Find out who she came with,” Ethan said coldly.

Jason hesitated. “But right now, we really need to find the Luke family’s heir. You know if we don’t get this done today, the old

man…

He didn’t finish the sentence.

It wasn’t just Judson who’d be furious–the Keene Group would take a hit, and Lillian too.

Right now, their top priority was locating the key figure–Mr. Luke.

Ethan rubbed his temples. “It won’t take long, Just look into it.”

“Yes, sir.”

Seeing Ethan was dead set on it, Jason had no choice but to follow orders.

In the dressing room, Stella had changed into her swimsuit.

Remembering what Abraham said, she bundled up warmly even for the short walk to the hot spring.

Just as she stepped out of the dressing room, she collided with a woman wrapped in a bath towel.

The woman lost her balance and, with a splash, fell straight into the foot rinse pool by the door.

Her towel soaked completely.

She shot a glare at Stella and yelled, “Are you blind?!”

Stella just stared.

4:43 PM

Chapter 185 Accusations in the Steam

She wiped the water off her face, stood up, and locked eyes with Stella–both immediately recognizing each other.

The woman’s expression turned icy. “You?”

“Ali, it’s you. No wonder you’ve got no eyes and no manners. That explains everything.”

Jasmine–Lillian’s best friend..

Finished

Stella had seen her once at the Reed family home during a visit. Jasmine had glared at her the whole time because of Lillian.

Then they’d run into each other twice while shopping, and both times Jasmine had given her grief, acting like Stella was in the wrong just for existing.

Stella had clapped back both times. She wasn’t the kind to take hits quietly, and they’d become enemies on the spot.

Now, after what Stella said, Jasmine looked ready to explode.

She yanked off her soaked towel, tossed it aside, and planted her hands on her hips. “Who are you calling rude?!”

Her stance said it all–if Stella talked back again, she was going to throw a punch

“I’m calling you rude. What, you got a problem with that?”

Seeing Stella so unbothered only made Jasmine angrier. She raised her hand to slap her.

But Stella wasn’t the type to just take it.

The moment Jasmine moved, Stella caught her wrist–and her other hand was already cocked back, ready to return the favor.

Before she could strike, a hand came from behind, grabbing Jasmine and shoving her hard.

Jasmine’s wrist was yanked from Stella’s grip, and she toppled backward–right back into the water.

At the same time. Stella was pulled into someone’s arms,

She instinctively turned around.

Abraham’s cold, stormy face came into view. His eyes burned into Jasmine before quickly flicking back to Stella.

“You okay? Did she hurt you?”

Stella shook her head. “No. She tried to hit me.”

Just then, Eddie came rushing over.

He glanced at Stella and couldn’t help thinking–This guy really does have a radar for her, huh?

He’d seen Abraham suddenly take off moments ago, eyes sharp and steps quick, as if he sensed something was wrong.

Stella had never been bullied in Rivermount, and Abraham clearly didn’t intend to let that change.

Abraham’s face stayed cold as he glanced at Jasmine, who was now climbing out of the foot bath again, soaked and furious.

Her teeth clenched in rage. That man shoved me!!

“Well, well, Stella No wonder you had the guts to call off your engagement with Ethan. Found someone else, huh? What now, trying to act like you’re in some tragi little romance?”

Even though the man holding Stella looked clearly out of the ordinary–powerful, composed, and utterly out of her league-
