So Stella shook her head and replied, “No. Yoel was hurt because of me. I need to go take care of him.”
Besides, Yoel’s mother was her mother’s best friend. She wanted to learn more about her mother from
Yoel
1 said you’re not allowed to go.” Brian’s face darkened.
Stella stood her ground. Im going
Bran sneered. “So you’ve decided to make a fool out of me, havent you? He had wamed her that Yoel had bad intentions. Yet, she refused to listen and insisted on clinging to him as a friend
Stella didn’t argue with him. She tumed her head away to ignore him. Brian suddenly grabbed her chin, his gaze turning dangerous and dark. “If you dare go your father wont be coming out.”
After saying that he released her and stormed out of the room with long strides
Stella
hin stung She touched it, her small face set in stubcom determination Todays events made her resize she couldnt always listen to Brian Otherwise, she would only end up always depending on him
and being his trophy wife
She had to save her father. If Bran wouldnt do it then she would get Sharon to help
Shortly after, Yvonne came up to bring her dinner. Ste a asked calmly, Yvonne, why havent you gone
back yes?
It was already past 8:00 pm, which was off–work time
Yvonne gently stroked Stel as head with concem. I noticed that Mr. Foley seemed upset. I was afraid he might get angry, so I thought I’d wait a bit before going back. Yvonne was very kind to her
Stella felt touched, her nose tingling with emotion. She shook her head Yvonne. I’m fine. He doesnt hit
women
Yvonnessid. “Mrs. Foley, please have something to eat.”
Stella hadn’t intended to eat. But upon seeing Yvonnes concem, she nodded and took the plate from
Yvonne’s hands
As she watched Stella eat, Yvonne tried to console her. “Mrs. Foley, people say hurtful things when arguing Please don’t take it to heart. Couples never hold grudges overnight. Everything will be fine by the next day. Sit down and have a good chat with Mr. Foley, I’m sure he won’t blame you”
Yvonne believed Brian still cared about Stella. Otherwise, he wouldnt have picked her up that night. But Brian wasn’t good at expressing himself, so Yvonne tried to speak on his behalf.
However, Stella didn’t want to hear it. Why should she have to appease him after he got angry? If it were
her fault she would admit it. But this time, it wasn’t her problem
He was indecisive, stating that he wouldn’t divorce her. However, he showed excessive concem for
Jessica. Then, there was his promise to rescue her father, which he now used to threaten her about seeing Yoel.
She feared that if she compromised this time, Brian would think she was afraid of his threats if that happened, in the future, as long as she disobeyed, would he keep using her father to threaten her?
She didn’t want to live a life where she had no control over her fate.
After dinner, Yvonne left, and Stella went to take a shower before lying down in bed. She didnt know how
long had passed when she dozed off into a hazy slumber.
Suddenly, someone embraced her from behind. Thin lips pressed against the nape of her neck, kissing her
Stella was startled awake by the kiss, opening her eyes to find herself in Brian’s arms. His warm che
made her back stiffen.
“What are you doing?” Stella cried out angrily.
“You’re not allowed to see Yoel tomorrow, Brian said coldly. Then he reached for her nightgown, roping
off the buttons.

She had deliberately worn a conservative nightgown but it was quickly tom span exposing her whine shoulder. His rough hand kneaded her soft skin.
Stella frowned in discomfort. “Brian, let me go.”
However, he refused, pinning her against the headboard
Dawn broke faintly. Brian still held her like a beast that couldnt be satiated
Stella cried out weakly, “Get off me…
“Will you still go to see Yoel?
Tears stained Stella’s face as she said. “Brian, you bastard.”
When she woke up again, Brian was gone. She checked the time; it was past 11:00 am. He had likely
gone to the company at this hour.
Stella stared at the ceiling for a while. Eventually, she still decided to go see Yoel anyway
He was injured because of her, and she couldn’t be ungrateful. At the very least, she needed to see him until he was discharged before she could feel at ease.
Feeling sticky all over, she gritted her teeth and went to the bathroom to shower
As for the morning–after pill, there was no need to take it. She found it hard to conceive with her week body anyway, so she wasn’t worried about that.
After her shower, she changed into a turtleneck sweater. Then, she bought a thermos of soup to visit Yoel
at the hospital
As soon as Stella arrived at the hospital, the nurse called Brian. He was discussin at the golf course. Today, his mood was quite good.
project with a client
Unexpectedly, he received a call from the nurse informing him that Stella had gone to the hospital again. He closed his eyes, his expression darkening. But moments later, his face returned to normal.
He called out in a solemn voice, “Mike.”
“Yes, Mr. Foley,” Mike stepped forward.
Dressed impeccably, Brian instructed, Tell Carrie that Yoel is in the hospital. Also, inform the Perkins family that our family is interested in an alliance through marriage.”
Since Yoel insisted on pursuing Stella, he wouldn’t blame Brian for arranging another woman for him.
Mike was taken aback
Carrie and Yoel? That pair seemed rather terrifying, especially Carrie. She was a complete and utter bitch.
After Brian notified Carrie, she brought some soup to the hospital to visit Yoel that afternoon.
Yoel…” Carrie pushed open the door and immediately saw Stella feeding Yoel his lunch.
“Stella, what are you doing here? Carrie glared at Stella. Her eyes were full of rage as if she wanted to
tear her apart
Stella replied calmly, “I’m here to see Yoel.”
“Yoel?” Carrie repeated, her gaze icy. “Have you no shame? You have a husband and you’re still calling like you know Yoel very well. Do you even deserve that? She approached, attempting to pull Stella away.
“Carrie!” Yoel said coldly.
