Chapter 103 A Bucket List of Pain
She didn’t believe a damn word of it anyway.
Stella made her point crystal clear–she was calling Ethan an idiot, plain and simple
Ethan nearly passed out from rage.
“You woman!”
“You don’t even have the right to question me, and you think you can humiliate me? Maybe you still don’t get what’s really going on here?”
Ethan froze. This damn woman…
He genuinely wanted to sew her mouth shut.
“What don’t I get?
At this point, Ethan’s chest was heaving from sheer fury.
But Stella just kept going, slicing through him with every word. “First, Ilumped you. Everyone in Rivermount knows it.”
Ethan said nothing.
“Second, with Eddie and Rianne–you’re still begging me for help, aren’t you?”
Still, Ethan stayed silent.
He might’ve been fine until she brought up Eddie and Rianne. But now, he was furning. To supposed doctors tying life–and- death matters to Stella’s damn mouth, what kind of doctors were they?
“Begging me on one hand, insulting me on the other, and threatening me at the same time?”
Stella’s eyes flashed coldly as she remembered how Susan and Jonathan had actually talked about kidnapping her at the hospital.
Ethan, who had barged in like a storm, now couldn’t get a single word out.
Especially when Stella looked him dead in the eye, stabbing every word into his chest like a knife. That serious expression. she really meant it. She was dead serious about the breakup..
Suddenly, something clenched in his chest–tight, breathless, suffocating
His face turned pale. “Then tell me… That man at the hospital–what’s he to you? He called you “miss. Why exactly did he call you that?
This was why Ethan had come here. He wasn’t leaving until he got an answer.
Stella looked at him with a smile at the corner of her mouth. “And why would I tell you?”
That question cut sharp.
And it was a fair one. Yeah–there was no reason to tell Ethan anything
“Was I not clear enough earlier? What don’t you get? I can repeat it for you if you want.”
Seriously.. dumb. At this point, Stella was starting to suspect he really was the type to only report good news and bury the bad.

From the outside, the Keene Group looked like it stood at the very top of the food chain. But who knew what kind of chaos heid been hiding behind closed doors?

Stella said. “You want to know? You’re so desperate to find out who owns that place… You want to buy it for Lillian to recover in
The idea was absurd enough to make her laugh, but Stella still found it deeply off–putting.
Her house being eyed by some sickly woman like it was up for grabs. If Lillian died in there, it’d taint the whole damn place.
Ethan pressed. “Is it Eddie? Or the man you were with at Kingston Heights? Or the one from the hospital today?”
That last one crossed the line. Stella’s patience snapped.
She looked around, wanting to douse Ethan with another glass of water–only to find the cup was already empty.
She slammed the cup down on her desk and stood, sharp and sudden. “Wait here.”
