Chapter 225 An Unseen War
Stella swallowed hard and nodded. “Yeah… but I’m not really sure.”
It felt like she was hurt. It hurt so badly down there.
Eddie was speechless.
Abraham was speechless.
Hearing her say she wasn’t sure, both men turned to stare at her.
Under their stares, Stella felt numb all over.
Especially Abraham
his gaze was so sharp it was like he had X–ray vision,
seeing right through her.
Abraham turned back to Eddie and said, “Get out.”
“Huh?” Eddie blinked, stunned.
What for? He was a doctor what could there possibly be that he wasn’t allowed to know?
But faced with Abraham’s look, Eddie decided not to argue for once.
Without asking anything more, he quietly stepped out of the room.
Now only Stella and Abraham were left.
Abraham sat down on the edge of the bed and reached for the blanket. “Let me
take a look.”
Stella was confused.
Look? Look at what? What is he trying to do?!
Meanwhile, at the hospital…
Ethan’s face was dark with rage, his entire body practically radiating cold air. He
Stella could block anyone, but she would never block Tessa.
Tessa, furious, kicked at Ethan. “You’re out of your damn mind. Give me back my phone!”
Back then, her mother had warned her not to stir up trouble with the Keene family but right now, Tessa really couldn’t hold it in anymore.
What the hell is he doing, hijacking her phone? Is this a robbery?!
Ethan dodged, but her foot still grazed his shin, leaving a searing pain.
“You damn woman…” Ethan gritted his teeth.
No wonder she’s Stella’s friend same crazy energy.
Tessa’s head was practically steaming with anger. “Ethan, give it up! She heard your voice through my number – you really think she’s going to answer?”
Ethan stiffened.
In that instant, the furious energy around him froze cold.
Tessa seized the chance to snatch her phone back. “You deserve it. Honestly, your taste in women is pathetic.”
Everyone in the social circles knew Lilian was trash the worst of the worst.
And yet Ethan had somehow convinced himself she was the embodiment of goodness.
Tessa turned and walked away.
From the hospital room, Susan’s shrill voice could still be heard: “We’re not leaving! Don’t even think about it!”
“In that case, we’ll have to arrange to transport Madam Susan and Ms. Lilian home,” the head nurse said coldly.
Susan snapped, “Get your hospital director out here! I want to speak to him
personally!”
“Madam Susan, it won’t make any difference. Not even the director can change this.”
When Ethan approached the door to the hospital room, the first thing he saw was the complete mess inside.
It looked like a hurricane had passed through.
Lilian sat on the bed, looking pitiful and helpless amid the chaos.
Ethan’s heart ached at the sight.
When Lilian spotted him, she choked out, “Ethan…”
He strode forward and pulled her into his arms. “It’s okay. I’ll handle it.”
Turning a cold glare on the head nurse, Ethan snapped, “Get out.”
“Sir, there’s no need to make this difficult,” the head nurse said with visible strain. “This is-”
“Get out!” Ethan roared.
The head nurse gave Lilian a long, cold glance, then turned and left without another word.
But her retreating figure made it clear this was far from over.
Jason had just stepped into the room when he heard Ethan bark, “Go fix it.”
Jason’s heart sank.
Even with the Keene family holding shares in this hospital, they couldn’t keep Lilian
here…
The force behind this is terrifying.
Meeting Ethan’s furious gaze, Jason could only nod stiffly. “Understood.”
Jason quickly left.
Stella doing this to me?”
Hearing that, both Ethan and Susan’s anger toward Stella flared even higher.
Especially Susan.
Thinking of Stella’s recent attitude toward her, she grew even more agitated.
“Ethan, have you seen Stella at Pluchville Hill? And the Luke family heir how the hell does Stella have the power to get him to go this far for her?”
First crushing the Reed family, now cutting off Lilian’s last escape route.
For Stella to move the Luke family’s heir like this… Susan realized she had gravely underestimated her.
The more she thought about it, the more her breathing turned sharp and shallow.
