Chapter 184 You Came to Block Me?
“But seriously,
e to corner me?”
where did you find out I’d be here? You came to
Stella shot Ethan’s smugness right back at him–word for word.
His face turned dark.
The look in his eyes grew sharp as he stared at her.
Behind him, Jason scratched his head. This Ms. Stella’s mouth… brutal. Doesn’t take a single hit.
Ethan gritted his teeth, “Stella, I know you’re clever, but let me make one thing clear. If you tell me who owns Verdant Villa, I might consider-
“Wow. Ethan, are you mentally challenged?”
Stella.com
Stella couldn’t take it anymore.
Might consider? Consider what?
Consider keeping some imaginary future going with her? Did he think he was a bucket of fried chicken, smelling so good everyone wanted a piece?
-You-
“Stella”
Just as Ethan opened his mouth again, another voice cut him off.
They both turned. Louis and Valery were walking toward them.
Louis had a slight smile on his face. The way he looked at Stella couldn’t have been more gentle.
The moment Ethan saw him, his face went pitch black.
Louis walked up beside Stella and glanced at the things in her hands, “Headed to the hot springs?”
He acted like they were close. Stella nodded.
“Then go on ahead. It’s freezing out today,” Louis said, even softer.
Maybe it was Ethan’s imagination, but Louis’s tone almost sounded… affectionate.
His expression darkened further.
Stella nodded. “Yeah. I’ll head over”
“Wait”
Ethan reached out to grab her. He still had so many questions. She wasn’t picking up his calls, and she was hard to find. Now that she was right here, he wasn’t about to let her go without answers.
But just as has hand moved, Louis caught him by the wrist “Mr. Ethan, you planning to ruin the hand too!”
As he said it, he shot a glance at Ethan’s cast–covered arm.

“Let go.”
Louis ignored him. He turned to tell Stella to go ahead, but she was already gone.
Not even a trace of her left.
Louis blinked.“.”
That girl. No wonder she was raised by Mr. Abraham–didn’t even say thanks before bolting.
But Stella knew exactly what she was doing
Especially now, with Louis and Abraham working on a major deal, she didn’t want any of these people latching onto her.
No matter what, she wasn’t about to leave that door open.
Seeing Stella was long gone, Louis didn’t bother with Ethan anymore and let him go.
He turned to leave, but Ethan stopped him. “Where is he?”
Louis paused, then gave a sarcastic twitch of his mouth. “He? Don’t tell me you came all this way without even knowing the guy’s name?”
If Judson had more than one son, Ethan would’ve been the clear failure. No way he’d ever inherit the Keene Group
He might look good, carry himself well, but inside? Nothing but air.
Louis could see
could see the storm in Ethan’s eyes–he’d nailed it.
He laughed. “Wow. Ha! Hahaha!”
His laugh was almost ridiculous..
Ethan’s face twisted. “Quit laughing. It’s disgusting”
“You’re this useless and you still think I’m the ugly one?”
Ethan didn’t responds
Louis clicked his tongue. “Seriously–Luke’s heir has been in Rivermount for a while now. What have you even been doing?”
Didn’t meet the guy. Didn’t know his name. Nothing.
Right. He’d been spending all his time wrapped up in Lillian.
That girl really was something–enough to drag Ethan into total uselessness,
When the six elders of the Keene family found out, they’d probably want to tear her apart.
Ethan’s voice dropped cold. “What I do has nothing to do with you.”
“Fair point,” Louis shrugged. “Not my business.”
He turned to Valery. “Let’s go”
