The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 376

Chapter 376 She Walked Away Anyway

Stella spooned some ice cream into her mouth.

Back when the Reed family was ridding high, Lillian had wanted to trample everyone underfoot.

Hell, look how the tables had turned.

After dinner, Abraham still hadn’t called, so Rianne suggested they go shopping.

Stella looked at the time on her watch. It was almost eight.

“Did Tempest really let you stay out this late?” she asked.

knew very well how possessive Tempest is of Rianne

an Pearls

He always wants her by his side, even going so far as to try to get her to quit her job at the hospital. His ideal scenario is to have her with him around the clock.

He’d been out for almost two hours, and not a single call from Tempest? That was unheard of. Normally he’d blow up her phone within the first hour

And now Rianne wants to go shopping, too?

At the mention of Tempest, something flickered in Rianne’s eyes. “It’s the Hale family banquet tonight.”

Stella was stunned.

That explained everything.

The Hales were a mess, and both Tempest’s mother, Madam Linden, and his aunt had never liked Rianne.

Even though Rianne had grown up in the Hale family, no one really cared about her, except Tempest.

She avoided the banquets whenever she could.

Stella turned and gave her a gentle hug.

I’m fine.” Rianne said.

But Stella could hear the bitterness in her voice, no matter how hard she tried to hide it.

“Since Mr. Jace died, Madam Linden doesn’t even bother to pretend anymore.”

When Tempest’s father, Mr. Jace, was alive, she at least put on a showe,

Now? No more masks

“True”

Stella nodded..

Rianne’s background was heartbreaking. Her father had been the Hale family’s chauffeur. He died saving Tempest’s father in an accident.

Rianne was only five years old at the time. Out of gratitude, Mr. Jace had brought her into the family.

But for whatever reason, Madam Linden and Tempest’s aunt had never liked her.

Even with this life–saving debt hanging over them, they had no affection for her.

And Rianne wasn’t the type to suffer in silence.

When they gave her attitude, she gave it right back.

“Oh, by the way. Rianne said suddenly, “I bought a house.”

“Huh?” Stella blinked.

That was a quick change of subject.

“I thought you were still living with Tempest for the last two years. Why buy a place now?”

Because the others in the Hale family didn’t like her, Tempest had bought an estate outside the Hale mansion to live with her.

Rianne looked at Stella without answering.

Stella raised an eyebrow. “Where is it?”

“Kingston Heights”

Alright, every time a girl decided to move out, they always ended up in Kingston Heights.

I loved that neighborhood too. The property management there was top–notch.

Does Tempest know?”

“He doesn’t

He doem

Wait, something was definitely wrong

In my opinion, Rianne and Tempest had always been solid. He treated her really well.

Even when the whole Hale family looked down on her, Tempest had always stood by her.
