Chapter 1411

When Stella heard Ronan's reassuring words, she let out a big sigh of relief. "I'm texting you the address now. I'm on my way to see Stellie. I'll be there in about ten minutes. After I meet her, I can probably hang in there for another ten, so you've got to get here in twenty minutes max. Otherwise, you might be too late."Ronan replied, "If I promise to help you, I'll be there on time, no doubt."Stella's voice softened with affection. "Dear, your girlfriend, me, is counting on you big time.""Don't worry."Stella felt reassured by Ronan's promise to come. However, she was not prepared for the bold statement Ronan would make in front of Stellie upon his arrival.Everyone had been saying Stella was way out of her league with Lucas. They called her shameless, and even she sometimes felt she had traded her soul for her current life. Yet, here was Ronan, a stranger, fiercely defending her. He declared that her relationship with Lucas was a consensual game, with neither being more no

Lucas was at an extremely important international meeting, so important that he was not allowed any outside contact to keep everything top secret.As Stella could not reach Lucas, Stellie saw this as her golden chance. It was now or never to get rid of Stella completely. She had to take this opportunity.When Lucas returned and saw the aftermath, it would be too late for him to do anything. He would have no choice but to face the situation.In a chilling tone, she said, "Make sure there's no evidence left."Kent replied, "No worries, miss. We've handled things like this before. Everything will be spotless."Back in her room, Stella gave Ronan a grateful smile. "Thanks so much."Ronan brushed it off. "Don't thank me. You should thank Abigail."Stella's curiosity piqued. "Did Abigail know Stellie was looking for me?""You know, when we were on that video call and I suddenly agreed to help you?""Was it not because of the deal I proposed?"Ronan revealed a twist. "No, it was Abi

"Your life? Why would I need your life?" Ronan's eyes, usually void of emotion, showed a flicker of anger as he looked at Stella. "If you don't cherish your own life, how can you expect others to?"Stella hastened to explain, "You've got it wrong. I'm not literally offering my life to you. What I mean is, as long as I'm alive, I present endless opportunities. I can be a valuable asset to you."Ronan had agreed to help her, but it was clear there were strings attached. Stella was not sure what she could offer him apart from money. Her talents were limited, and her offerings scant. Her only assets were her acting talent, her popularity with audiences, and her potential to earn money.But to Stella's surprise, Ronan raised an eyebrow and let out a laugh. "Money doesn't interest me."Stella was left speechless.Only someone truly rich would say such a thing. They have enough wealth to find her offer unappealing.Yet, for Stella, who came from a modest background, money was everything

"Has Lucas ever said he loves you?""Yes, many times."Ronan's curiosity deepened. "Was it during intimate moments?""Yes, is there an issue with that?" Stella asked.Ronan lightly tapped her forehead. "You're too innocent. You believe what a man says in those moments?"Stella knew deep down such words were not entirely reliable, but she chose to believe them anyway. It comforted her, letting her think their relationship might be based on love. "Well, there was one time he said it outside of those moments.""When?""He was out with Xander, Alwyn, and Ron once. He drank a lot that night, came back, and while hugging me, said he loved me."Ronan looked at her with a mix of amusement and concern. "What should I even say to you?"Stella shrugged. "If you're unsure, better to say nothing. But I think you're actually quite a good person, honest and dependable."Ronan half-joked, "You should praise me like that in front of Abigail. Let her know there are guys like me worth loving in

Stella was anxious, hoping desperately that Lucas would pick up her call. But all she heard was the robotic voice of the voicemail: [The user you are trying to reach has switched off their phone. Please try again later.]When she could not get through to him, she tried calling Lucas on WhatsApp, but again, no answer. Frustrated, Stella left a fiery voice message for him."Have you lost all your humanity, Lucas? You were the one who proposed to me. You always had the upper hand in our relationship, and it's your responsibility to deal with the fallout. Now that your old flame is back, do you view me as a blemish in your life that you want to remove? I'm warning you, if anything happens to me, my ghost won't leave you alone. I'll haunt you and your wife day and night, and you'll never have peace."In this high-stress situation, Ronan found Stella's intense words somewhat amusing. "I've met Lucas a few times and knew he was tough, but this is extreme. He's showing no mercy to someone h

"She's still alive," a voice whispered nearby."But barely," another voice added grimly."Should I finish the job?""No, let's not make this any more complicated. It has to appear as an accident. We can't leave any trace leading back to us, and definitely not to Miss.""We should leave now. Someone's coming."Stella strained to listen, trying to identify the speakers, but her eyes refused to open. The voices soon faded into silence. After some time, she heard different voices."Mr. McKinney, Mr. McKinney!""Quick, get Mr. McKinney into the ambulance.""There's another person here. We need to rescue them fast."The distant wail of an ambulance reached Stella's ears. She felt surrounded by people. She caught snippets of their conversation."Her legs are trapped, and she's bleeding heavily. We can't just pull her out.""Have the emergency response arrived?""We need to cut through the bar trapping her to get her out.""They're on their way, should be here any minute."How lo

Lucas's voice was deep and smooth, not unlike a fine aged wine.It was deep, rich and melodious.Yet, in Stella's ears, each and every word he said seemed to be laced with venom; vicious and cruel.Stella covered her ears and curled up, no longer willing to listen to that voice. "Stop! Stop it! I beg you, Lucas, stop it, please?"She did not know if he could not hear her, or he decided to ignore her.Lucas walked, step by step elegantly, toward her."Stella Dawson, I told you before, don't try to run away from me. I'll end this marriage when I feel like it. You never had any say in it."Stella the superstar? Without me, you'll still be fumbling in some morass somewhere, much less being a superstar today, heh."Lucas continued his mocking, "What? Say again? You want to give birth to whose child? You want to give birth to mine?"Stella, you still don't know where you stand. You're just a stand-in, a replacement. What right do you have to bear my child?"Stella, even if I no lon

'If there's another life, I'll definitely listen to Mom and never go to Hayshiport.'Then, none of this will happen.'But... there's no other life...'The stinging pain slowly swallowed Stella's consciousness little by little......Drip! Drip!The sound of dripping water chimed rhythmically and soon roused Stella's consciousness.She suddenly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was a beautiful yet familiar face, but she still took a while to realize who the person was. "Abigail, is that... you?"Her voice was so hoarse she startled herself."Stella, it's me, Abigail. Thank goodness you're finally awake." Abigail immediately handed her a glass of water. "Stella, have some water to quench your throat first."Stella wanted to take the glass but she very quickly realized that her hands were so weak she could not even lift them."Stella, don't move. I'll hold it for you." Abigail first helped Stella off the bed and then put the glass on the latter's lips, patiently letti

"Stella, do you know who I am?" Abigail suddenly asked.Stella blinked. "You're my best friend, Abigail Renee. How could I not know you?""You really don't know who Lucas is?" Abigail asked again.Stella shook her head. "I heard of the name before, but I don't have any memories of this person."Abigail was at a loss for words.Stella knew her but somehow not Lucas.'What sort of trauma had caused her to selectively forget Lucas, or is she just pretending to not know him?' Abigail wondered.Abigail tried to seek the truth from Stella's expression and eyes, but unfortunately for her, Stella's eyes were clear and bright, and her stunned look was rather cute too.There were no signs of her feigning ignorance.'If this isn't Stella putting up a masterful act, then she must've really forgotten about Lucas,' Abigail mused."Stella, do you know Nathan then?" Abigail asked."You're my best friend, so why would I not know your husband?" Stella replied."How about John?" Abigail conti

Chapter 1420

Both Abigail and Stella looked over and saw Lucas walking in. "You head out first."Abigail wanted to say something but she knew well about the care and concern he had for Stella for the past few days and she believed that he would not hurt Stella.She stepped out of the room and closed the door to allow the two of them to talk.The moment she closed the door, she turned around and walked into a warm embrace.She knew who it was without even looking. "Let's go. I'll accompany you for your physio session.""Sure." Just as Nathan said that, he grabbed Abigail with his right hand. "Abigail...""Hmm?" She tilted her head."Thank you!" Nathan said.Abigail looked up and smiled. "Why are you thanking me all of the sudden?""Thank you for not forgetting about me!" he said.Abigail suddenly panicked and quickly pushed away Nathan's hand and wanted to head back. "Lucas already knows that Stella doesn't remember who he is?"Nathan held his hand out and pulled her back. "Let them deal
