Chapter 396 Lost It
Stella completely lost patience. She rolled her eyes at Ethan and slammed the car door shut. “Drive through him.”
No point wasting time talking to someone that unhinged.
The driver nodded. “Yes, ma’am.”
Just as the car started to move, the driver up front suddenly said, “Miss, the boss is back.”
Stella looked up through the windshield. The moment she spotted Abraham’s car, a loud bang echoed the car in front got slammed out of the way.
Stella was speechless. That’s her brother, alright. Never one to beat around the bush.
She stepped out of the car without sparing Ethan a glance, walking straight toward Abraham’s: vehicle. Abraham got out too, exuding menace. He cast a sharp look at Ethan. “Surprising that Mr. Keene still dares show his face here. But…” He glanced at Ethan’s now–smashed car. “I don’t like people trespassing on my turf. Next time, make sure you know where you’re going. Don’t take the wrong turn.” The last few words were laced with threat.
Ethan trembled with rage. He looked toward Stella, who now stood beside Abraham. The two of them didn’t even try to hide anything. Holding hands. Right in front of him. Ethan’s eyes locked on their entwined fingers. His chest felt like it was caving in.)
“I’ve got lunch with Rianne. Let’s go, Stella said, turning away with no interest in wasting more time on Ethan. Abraham fondly pinched her nose and led her into the car.
They drove off, leaving Ethan standing alone in the cold wind. He felt chilled to the bone–but it wasn’t just the weather. It was the ache in his heart. When she’d laughed at the idea that she hated. him, there was nothing but scorn. She didn’t hate him. She didn’t feel anything. So what did the last two years mean to her?
Inside the car, Stella sat on Abraham’s lap, wiggling slightly. “I want my own seat.” Every time they were alone, he insisted on holding her. Come to think of it, he had been carrying her around since they were kids. His large hand rested on her soft waist. Good thing Stella was petite- otherwise, that baby fat would be hard to manage.
“Are you mad?” Abraham asked.
Stella remained silent.
He continued, “He came to find me–I didn’t look for him,” she said with a pitiful pout.
“Still don’t know how to deal with people like that?” Abraham asked. His rule for dealing with irrelevant people: don’t waste time. Use force if needed.
Stella raised an eyebrow. “I was about to ram his car. Then you showed up. Wait, weren’t you supposed to be back in the afternoon?”

Abraham didn’t answer–instead, he kissed her.
Stella was speechless. Not again….
In the front, Abel noticed the sudden silence in the car and quietly raised the divider.
+8 Pearls
This little troublemaker had already delayed everything. They had just reached their destination when Abraham learned Ethan was at Seaflats Cove blocking Stella–he turned the car around immediately. That crash just now? Yeah, Abraham had definitely lost his temper. Ethan’s car was probably totaled.
Abraham dropped Stella off where she was supposed to meet Ryan. As she stepped out, she nearly tripped–Abraham caught her just in time.
“What’s wrong? Can’t even walk straight?” he asked.
Stella shot him a glare. “It’s your fault–you kissed me until I was dizzy.”
Susan was frantic. Lillian’s medical costs were sky–high–tens of millions–and she was desperately calling Patrick.
On the phone, Susan’s voice was nearly pleading. “I know you’ve started a new family. I can’t control you. I’m not asking for anything. But please… don’t be so heartless. You used to love Lillian. We raised her together.”
She refused to believe Patrick had no feelings left for Lillian. She had to get treated. No matter
the cost.
No one knew why Susan was so obsessed with saving Lillian. Even after everything, including her attempt on Stella’s life, Susan still wouldn’t give up on her.
