The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167

With the Humphrey family backing them up, and with him and her really liking each other, everything was going to be fine, but right

now…

Everything changed.

Estrella’s trouble today was just a small ripple.

But it still made her annoyed.

The car was still driving around this city aimlessly.

Finally, Stephanie’s car stopped under a hotel building.

Looking at the light in that room on the third floor of the hotel, and the shadow on the curtain, Stephanie felt weird for some reason.

Recently, my mom came to Haraville to handle the adoption paperwork for Belinda, so she had been staying here.

The hotel was one she found for her mom, a suite, comfortable enough.

But the relationship between the biological mother and daughter was so distant.

Actually, she knew that after her father died, it affected more than just her.

Mom was, too.

But for various reasons, in the end, they still ended up like this.

Stephanie’s phone started vibrating.

It was her call.

Stephanie hesitated a bit, but in the end she still touched the connect button.

“Come on up, I saw your car.” Her voice came through.

Stephanie looked up and saw the windows on the third floor already open, and a woman standing by the window.

“Mm.” Stephanie replied.

She walked all the way to the suite door. Before she could knock, the door was already opened from inside.

The

person who showed up was Stephanie’s biological mother, Monica Higgins.

The two looked at each other.

But nobody called the other person.

Stephanie couldn’t say the word “Mom.”

Monica couldn’t say that “Steph.”

The two stayed silent, then she got slippers for Stephanie.

After changing her shoes, Stephanie followed Monica to the living

room.

The two sat in silence/on the couch.

A long time later, Stephanie spoke first: “After you came to Haraville, did you go visit him?”

“Yeah,” Monica replied.

They all knew this “he” meant the stepfather.

Stepdad in prison.

No, it was her ex–stepfather, they were already divorced.

Thinking about it, Stephanie said, “I want a divorce.”

Monica’s expression didn’t change and she replied, “Yeah.”

Then it went quiet again.

The clock on the wall was ticking softly. No one knew how much time had passed. Monica said, “I’ll take care of Belinda’s paperwork. You don’t need to come here anymore.”

So this was kicking me out.

Stephanie looked at Monica.

She looked for a long time, then she nodded, “Okay.”

That’s it.

The mother and daughter talked for a bit and then went their separate

ways.

Before going out, Stephanie took all the cash out of her bag and put it in the entryway along with the necklace she had taken off.

Stephanie started driving again.

She thought driving around would make her feel better, but now she felt even worse.

The night wind blew by and swept away some fallen leaves by the

road, and Stephanie felt a bit cold.

Forget it.

Go back.

Take a good bath, get some sleep, and everything would be better

tomorrow.

But as soon as I got to the apartment building I rented, I saw Maxwell’s Maybach parked there.

He still found her place.

Even if she didn’t talk to him.

But she knew, as long as Maxwell wanted to check, it was only a matter of time.

Stephanie didn’t think too much about it, just parked the car and got

out.
