Chapter 73 Blocked

Jonathan was also there.

Ethan was called away by Madeline with a phone call.

After learning the full story, Patrick’s face darkened.

Susan said. “What does she think of us? Like we’re fools?”

“Alright. Morn, don’t get angry. I think she must have felt that the money we gave her wasn’t enough She could have just told us. We… Lillian paused as she was speaking-

But even without finishing her sentence, everyone in the room had already decided that Stella was being unreasonable. They even assumed that the money she earned was not clean. Now, everyone was thinking about how to shut down her studio.

After leaving Lillian’s hospital room, Patrick instructed his assistant to contact Stella. The assistant had to change phones a few times before finally reaching Stella. Stella was about to play a game when she received the call.

Patrick’s assistant said. “Miss, sir is at the cafe across from Kingston Heights. Please come out for a moment.”

Stella raised an eyebrow. “What if I don’t!”

“Then, ‘m afraid you won’t be able to keep your studio. The assistant’s tone was particularly firm.

Another threat? Stella snorted. “Let him try shutting it down. I’ll see if he can actually do it”

If they were going to make threats, they should stop talking and act. They’d been threatening her for days, freezing her cards, and now this.

She hung up the phone without any courtesy.

On the other end, the assistant was stunned for a moment after hearing the call disconnect, then looked toward Patrick. The waiter had just placed the coffee Patrick ordered and was walking away. Seeing the strange expression on his assistant’s face, Patrick frowned. “What’s wrong?”

The assistant replied, “She said, if you are so capable, then go ahead and shut down her studio. She won’t see you.”

Patrick’s face turned dark as he heard this.

“Ahem! This ingrate. You didn’t tell her I’m here at the cafe?”

“I did, but she won’t come!”

Then go knock on the door and get her out. Patrick was fuming. “Forget it, I’ll go myself.

He hadn’t communicated with Jonathan and didn’t know that Stella no longer lived at Kingston Heights.

So, he marched over angrily to knock on her door, only to knock for over ten minutes with no response.

“Stella, open the door

It was silent. The knocking was so loud that eventually, the neighbors complained, and even the property management had to get involved.

Patrick stormed downstairs, only to look up and see that Stella’s windows were completely dark.

“she not home? What time is it?”

The assistant checked his phone. It’s already past 10

“A young girl, yet not even home by this hour. When she didn’t want to stay at wut then”

at the Reed family. I should have let her move

“I was using the cafe’s phone to call. She’s blocked my number.”

The word “blocked” was enough to make him furious. Now, she was blocking anyone who tried to contact her–even her father. Patrick was livid. When he got back to the hospital, he began scolding Susan. He blamed her for not raising Stella properly all these years, especially when Stella came back.

Susan was also furious. “What do you mean I didn’t raise her properly? With her attitude, who could raise her? You?” Did I not want to take care of her!
