As Lilian’s desperate voice rang in her ear –“Or you can call Ethan, just tell him that car accident had nothing to do with me“– Stella ended the call.
Even an idiot wouldn’t say something that shameless. Not worth her time.
She hung up and sent Lilian straight to the blocked list.
Just as she put the phone down…
A knock came at the door, “Stella, it’s Mom.”.
It was Evelyn’s voice from outside.
Stella instinctively moved to open the door -but froze when she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom. Her expression stiffened.

She turned back–and was startled to see Abraham, fresh from the shower.
Evelyn: “You-”
She glanced at the water on his torso, then looked past him to see Stella sitting on the bed, fully dressed in clean pajamas and clearly untouched.
She immediately glared at Abraham.
