Chapter 89 Play Along, Crush Later.
Lilian said. “No matter if she’ll talk to me nicely or not, I still want to try. Can’t I at least do that?”
Ethan fell silent
Seeing Lilian like this, all the rejections he had prepared were swallowed back down.
Fine.”
Even if he stopped Lilian, she would never give it up anyway.
But Stella. With the way she was now, cold, unreachable, and utterly resistant, what was the point of seeing her?
+8 Pearls.
Stella had not planned to go into the studio that afternoon. But one call from Kimmy, and she was there.
After holding an emergency meeting, it was nearly 6 p.m. by the time they wrapped up. She remembered that Abraham had said he would be home for dinner tonight. She did not want to keep him waiting
She instructed Kimmy, “Keep an eye on things here. If they work late, order food for everyone. Get something from Maison du Crabe.
“W–Where?” Kimmy blinked, thinking she had misheard.
“Maison du Crabe, Stella repeated.
Kimmy panicked. “There are a lot of people here, boss, It’s going to be expensive. There’s no need to go all out, I…”
“Tell the restaurant to put it on my tab. Then, Stella rushed off.
Kimmy’s mouth twitched. “Thank you, boss?”
Maison du Crabe. She loved their buns, but they were so expensive.
Since the boss said so, tonight she was getting two baskets.
As soon as Stella stepped into the elevator, Kimmy turned to the office floorand yelled, “Guys! Let’s push hard tonight. Boss is ordering Maison du Crabe for dinner!”
The second ‘Maison du ú Crabe came out of her mouth, and everyone’s eyes lit up,
That famous luxurious restaurant? Almost no one could afford it usually.
First expensive staff benefits, now dinner from Maison du Crabe?
Everyone suddenly found a burst of energy and threw themselves into work.
Just as Stella came downstairs and stepped our of the elevator, she ran right into Ethan
She froze for a second, then walked past him like he was invisible.
Ethan’s anger shot up to his scalp when she did not even spare him a word. He reached out and grabbed her slim wrist..
Again with the wrist grabbing
Disgust flickered plainly in Stella’s eyes. Without a word, she kicked him. Clean and fast.

“Still not letting go!” Stella’s voice was cold.
You are you even a woman?” Ethan spat.
+8 Pearls
Damn it. With her temperament, how could Rianne and that man from Kingston Heights possibly like her? All the gentle, soft women in the world, and they choose her? How strange. But why did it bother me so much that she had other men around hert
Stella
gave a
a mocking laugh. “Whether I’m a woman or not, you won’t get the chance to find out anyway, so why worry?”
“You.” Ethan choked.
The words rang in Ethan’s head like a slap.
This woman!
He did not even know what to say anymore. His pride was bruised beyond repair.
He stood straight with effort. “Come with me to the hospital.”
His knee ached. This damn woman, how could she kick that hard? It felt cracked.
“What for?” Stella asked, eyes narrowing.
“Lilian wants to see you,” he re
replied.
“She wants to see me? Stella mised her brows.
Ethan nodded. “She said it’s something important.”
Without another word, Stella kicked him again. Harder this time.
Ethan gave a low groan, nearly buckling
Important, my ass. What could I and Lilian possibly have to talk about? Clearly, that woman hadn’t learned her lesson from those three cancers. Maybe heaven hadn’t panished her enough. But if the wanted to start something? Fine. I’ll play along
With that thought, Stella decided to play along to see what Lilian was up to. “Wait I need to make a call.”
Ethan asked, instinctively, “To whom?”
“To my darling, of course, I need to let him know my schedule. What, is that a problem?”
Ethan nearly choked on his own blood. “You..!”
She shook him off and walked to the side to call Abraham
He picked up almost instantly. His warm voice came through. “Done with work?”

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....
