The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67 Cutting the Cord for Real

That crash… She really had almost died. A gaping wound in her head, blood pouring endlessly. She had slipped into unconsciousness more than once.

If it had not been for emergency surgery, she would not be here now,

Stella said. “My life was saved by doctors. You? At most, a month in the hospital? I stayed two. Double it.”

You can’t calculate life like that! You wouldn’t even have one if not for me!” Susan shouted, “You can’t sever this bond!”

“Fine. If I can’t sever it, then have Lilian sever hers instead. Stella countered back.

“Don’t you dare! Just the mention of Lilian was enough to ignite Susan’s rage.

When they found Stella and brought her home, she had promised Lilian nothing would change. That she would always bet her daughter.

That car accident wasn’t her doing! Stop blaming her!” Even now, she took Lilian’s side.

And Stella, well, it would be a lie to say that did not hurt.

“You won’t cut this, you won’t cut that. You sure are greedy,” she said with a cold smile.

Susan raised her voice again. “If you dare post that article, I’ll go public too. I’ll say you’re lying. Do you want that kind of

“She paid the price! She’s dead! Dead! Isn’t that enough? Susan screamed.

“Not enough. Two words. Cold. Unforgiving.

“She paid with her life for what she did. But Lilian, she has her own debts. She didn’t do it! Why can’t you believe it was just an accident?” Susan felt like she was going crazy.

What she hated the most about Stella was she kept bringing up the car accident, saying that Lihan was the culprit.

Stella had had enough. “You don’t want to cut ties? Fine.”

She stood, grabbed her bag, and headed for the door.

Susan stopped her “Where are you going? We’re not done!”

“What more is there to say?” Stella shot–back. “What right do you have to demand explanations?”

If they wanted a clean break, I’ll give it to them.

She dialed Abel’s number. “Take care of the matter with the Reed family,” she said simply. “Our so–called connection.”

Abel answered, short. “Got it”

Stella hung up.
