The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 539
Chapter 539 Say It Like You Mean It
The former female leader of Ashen Pact.
According to rumors, the current leader had gotten into quite the power struggle with her when vying for that position.
This whole thing’s such a mess…
Abraham said calmly, “Call me ‘husband.””
Wait–what?
Abraham looked at her expectantly. “Hmm?”
Stella stared at him. “What are you even doing?”
Her cheeks flushed bright red. She was trying to talk about something serious, and here he was messing around.
Abraham: “Say it first.”
No way…

The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In
This was a serious conversation!
Abraham: “Say it, and I’ll tell you what to do.”
“Seriously?”
This man…
This was really the time for this?
Abraham coaxed gently, “Be good, Stella. You need to get used to it.”
She couldn’t keep calling him “brother” anymore.

Stella squirmed awkwardly in his arms, trying to break free, but Abraham had no intention of letting her go. His arm around her waist even tightened slightly.
In the end, Stella gave in. “Husband.”
Her face, already flushed, turned an even deeper shade of red after that one word. Abraham: “One more time.”
“Oh my God, you- fine. Husband.”
“Now can you tell me?”

Abraham was satisfied. He pinched her little nose affectionately. “Actually, if she really was the former leader of Ashen Pact, there’s nothing to worry about.”
“What do
you
mean?”
How could there not be anything to worry about?
If Diana really was the former head, she’d definitely have serious beef with the current one. And hadn’t she just gotten snatched back from Rivermount by that same leader?
This whole thing was clearly way more complicated…
But while Stella fretted, Abraham seemed to have a clearer perspective.
He said, “Anyone who’s held leadership in Ashen Pact isn’t exactly made of paper.”
Well…

Chapter 539 Say It Like You Mean It
When he put it that way, it kinda made sense.
“But she’s the former head.”
How could a former leader compete with the authority of the current one?
Finished
Even if she didn’t like admitting it, people who left the spotlight usually got cold–shouldered fast.
Abraham said, “The current leader’s hold on power has always been shaky.”
His voice was low and steady.
Stella blinked. “Shaky?”
Abraham nodded. “Very.”
If that’s true…
“Is it because of Ms. Miller?”
So the reason the current leader’s grip was unstable–was it because they weren’t legitimate?
If they clawed their way to the top with dirty tricks, then yeah, it made sense that they’d have trouble holding on to it.
Abraham carried her over to the couch and sat down with her. “From what I know, the former female leader of Ashen Pact was highly respected. Someone like that doesn’t get replaced easily.”
“Then doesn’t that make it even more complicated?”
Stella looked more worried now.
This was about legitimacy, and if what Abraham said was true–that the current leader had always been insecure in their position–then dragging the former one back now reeked of desperation.
Stella’s concern for Diana only grew.
Abraham seemed to read her thoughts. His voice grew deeper: “With her status, whatever’s going on between her and Ashen Pact isn’t something you can meddle in.”
Stella didn’t answer.

He’s right…
What could she do in the face of elder councils and high–level politics?
Abraham added, “But that doesn’t mean you can’t help her.”
“How?”
Her eyes lit up with hope.
Abraham met her gaze and chuckled softly. “Keep Tessa safe.”
…That’s it?
Still, it kinda made sense. Before Diana disappeared, her biggest worry was Tessa.
Finished
“But Tessa’s still with Victor, and they think she’s a spy. No way–I have to go bring her back.”
Stella thought about how kind Diana had been to her back in Rivermount. Abraham was right -the best thing she could do now was take care of Tessa.
Abraham had meant to say that just making sure Tessa was okay was enough.
But her reaction…
He remembered how she and Tessa were always joined at the hip in Rivermount.
If she brought Tessa here, they’d be stuck together twenty–four seven…
He rubbed his temples. “You probably won’t be able to.”
Stella: “Huh?”
“Victor won’t let her go.”
Wait, what?
Because she stripped him of every shred of dignity she could?

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan)
Ch 489 Doesn’t this prove that Dan doesn’t actually have amnesia? Why would he go to the island with a strange woman and why would he steal from Derrick? He doesn’t know them....
Ch 488 I feel like this is going to be what Stella stole in his study in Pagenda or wherever his estate was....
Ch 485 I thought it was going to be the Reed family mine that she robbed, thus taking the Keenes product and leaving them in that situation....
Ch 483 o then, how did the Reeds fine her? How did they not know where she was from?...
Ch 477 Definitely hidden pedo in here, referring to tiny women as little girls in every way possible....
Ch 468 How could Stella inherit her adopted father’s weak stomach constitution?...
Ch 468 Abraham and Marie’s mother has been called Evelyn, Diane and Loretta.. which is it? Evelyn has been the most used....
Ch 465 She still doesn’t know the mistress is Lillian’s aunt?...
Ch 464 Why didn’t she kick her out herself be for she went to attack the mistress…...
Ch 463 This is stupid now. I understand being scared in his presence enough to not think straight, but she’s a lone more often than not and has plenty of time to think things through, especially if she has time to get gossip from Rivermount and report to Stella....
