The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39 Would You Marry Him?

“D“mn you and your morn!”

That crude response made the air on the other end of the phone go dead silent for a beat.

Then came Jonathan’s furious voice. “Stella, are you completely out of control now?”

“Hard to say. But I’d say I’m more in control than ever.

Out of control? Ha-

Jonathan snapped, “My mom is your mom too! Try cursing her again, I dare you!”

“You’re just a hick! Your whole life is buried in dirt and still too dumb to tell how deep it is.”

“Stella! Jonathan barked..

And just like that, Stella went right back to cursing him.

Jonathan was fuming. “Tell me where you are right now!”

If he found her now, he’d beat her senseless. Since she came home, she hadn’t given anyone a moment’s peace. And now, even at a time like this, she was still causing trouble.

Stella shot back, “You’re so capable, why don’t you track me down, you dirt mound!”

Before hanging up, she made sure to throw in one last insult.

Jonathan. still holding the phone, nearly passed out from rage when he heard the beeping tone on the line.

He had already been stewing after failing to find her at Kingston Heights.

Then he came back to the hospital, tried calling her, only to realize she’d blocked his number. He finally borrowed another phone just to get through.

They hadn’t even exchanged more than a few words–only for him to get completely chewed out.

Right now, he wanted nothing more than to find her and wring her neck.

Susan stood right beside him. She’d heard everything Stella said on the phone. With a sigh, she muttered, “Does she really hate us that much? What did we ever do to deserve this?”

Jonathan growled, “What did we do? We gave her a life she didn’t deserve!”

After shouting, he immediately made another call, ordering someone to find out where Stella was, no matter what it took.

There was only one thing on Jonathan’s mind now–find Stella!

The way she acted on the phone–he was going to make her beg just as hard..

Susan sighed again, glancing toward the hospital room. “Enough. Don’t you have to attend Mr. Parker’s birthday party tonight? Go already. Don’t waste time?

“And Stella “

“I’ll go find her once she turns up, Susan said calmly.

By now, she understood. When it came to Stella, threats didn’t work.

So tiry’d have to coax hier. No matter what, they had to get Rianne back first.

Chapter 39 Would You Marry Him?

Finished

“Eddie

Eddie McKenzie, the renowned cardiologist from Falvaria.

Especially in surgery, he’d never botched a single operation. People called him the Miracle Doctor.

From the front seat, Eddie turned and gave her a teasing grin. “D’mn girl, you’re good at hiding. You had Abraham searching all these years. If he still couldn’t find you, I figured he’d start digging through the underworld to see if you were hiding out with the reaper.

Hearing that Abraham had been searching for her all these years made Stella feel a twinge of guilt.

She cautiously glanced at the cold–faced man beside her.

Abraham took her phone. Her brows jumped. “What are you doing?”

Don’t speak, Abraham said.

What?

She watched him scroll through her contacts, messages, WhatsApp, and every app.

So he is checking up on me?

Stella frowned and snatched her phone back. “What is this? I graduated years ago.

Back then, he said no dating during school. But this wasn’t school anymore.

Abraham looked at her and gave a low chuckle. He hooked an arm around the back of her head and pulled her onto his lap.

“Hey, wait! Eddie’s still in the car!” Stella protested.

The moment she spoke, the privacy divider between the front and back seats rose silently.

Still. Stella felt awkward.

She wriggled in his lap, trying to get off, and muttered, “Abraham, I’m really a grown–up now!”

Abraham laughed softly. “Oh yeah? So now you want to date?”

Stella’s mouth twitched.

Date?

She’d never even thought about it.

She stayed quiet, but Abraham continued, “Or do you really think that engagement with him is legit?”

The wedding was just days away.

“If I hadn’t shown up, would you really have married him?”

Stella could clearly hear the danger in his voice when he said that.

lo” the answered.

“No Abraham didn’t buy it

Abel had already dug up everything
