Chapter 276 She Has to Know
What was more was that Jonathan was the future heir of the Reed Group. Over the years, Jonathan had taken over a lot of the Reed Group’s business. To Patrick, he was definitely someone different.
But at the moment, Jonathan was lying in a hospital bed, while Patrick was spending time with another woman, and even baby.
Stella asked, “How close were they acting?”
Tessa replied, “He had his arm around her shoulders, and their faces were almost touching. Normal friends don’t act like that, right?”
Stella stayed silent for a moment. “So their relationship really isn’t ordinary.”
Back when they were at the Reed family home, even sitting next to Susan made him seem out of place.
When Stella didn’t speak, Tessa said, “Do you want me to dig deeper? Maybe make things even messier for the Reed family?”
Messier!
In Stella’s eyes, the Reed family was already a mess. Unless something unexpected happened, Rebecca had probably already gone to the hospital by now.
Stella said. “Is it even necessary? One Rebecca is enough.
Plus. Lillian couldn’t go.abroad for treatment, Jonathan was about to be discharged, and basically every corner of the Reed family was chaotic.
“Oh right, there’s also Rebecca,” Tessa said, like she had just remembered. Is she really that powerful?”
Stella said. “If she fails to climb the ladder by using the child, she’ll definitely panic. And if things go wrong, the Parker family might get dragged into this too.”
After all, Sharon had truly fallen for Jonathan.
Tessa gasped. “What? Is she actually that bold?”
Stella gave a quiet “yeah.” She had looked into Rebecca, so she naturally knew the details.
“Before, Rebecca had no idea about Jonathan and Sharon. But now that she knows, she’ll definitely think Sharon blocked her path to marrying up. What do you think she’ll do?”
Tessa said. “She’ll go fight Sharon. That would throw the entire Reed family into the fire. Because of Lillian alone, the Reed and Keene families are already at odds. If Rebecca starts something with Sharon now, wouldn’t that just blow up the whole Reed family?”
At this rate, the Reed family really might collapse.
Stella said, “Su about that woman.
Before she could finish, Tessa cut her off. “Madum Susan has to know about that woman! She has to protect her rights. You’re really something, you don’t even think about your own mother?
Stella blinked.
Tessa said firmly, “Listen, I have to help with this. I’m going to get to the bottom of that woman’s business. Star, I’m telling you, everyone says you don’t know how to pick sides. This time, you need to stand with your biological mom.”
Stella’s eyes widened. Is she seriously going to help Susan?
Stella muttered. “Okay, you do kind of make sense. I should be clear about sides. I can’t let some outsider take advantage.”

Just talking about this blood tie made Stella’s head pound like a drum.
Tessa said, “Just think of it as the last bit of feeling you owe her. Help her this once, and that’s i
Stella didn’t respond.
If Tessa hadn’t said it, she wouldn’t have even thought “feeling” could be used that way.
The two of them talked on the phone for a long while before hanging up.
When Stella came out of the tea room, she saw Eddie was still there.
Seeing him gave her an instant headache. She didn’t want to hear another word from him and immediately tried to walk
around him.
But Eddie noticed and said. “Hey, Star, I have something to tell you.”
Stella quickened her pace.
The last thing she wanted right now was to hear Eddie talk.
But Eddie chased after her. “You little brat, I’m doing this for your own good.”
Stella twitched her lips hard at those words.
Seriously, dude? For my good? Are you sure you’re not just trying to screw me over?
Eddie shoved a box into her hands. “Here, take this
“What is it?”
Stella looked down. The box was pink with English writing on it.
Even though she’d never used one before, the words on the box igade her brain explode.
It was an adult product?
Wait, seriously?
Stella snapped, “What is wrong with your brain?”
but he worried Abraham will skin him alive?
Eddie said, “No need to thank me. I’m just acting as a responsible doctor. When you and Abraham go back to Falvaria, there’ll probably still be a transition period, right? You’re not planning to trap him with a kid just to marry up, are you? I’m warning you, Madam Evelyn treats you like her own daughter. Don’t ruin yourself with that kind of trick.”
