My dad was right-I should've never gotten close to someone like you. You're gonna getkilled!" The two women immediately turned on each other.
Within moments, security arrived and escorted both of them out-just as they were about to physically fight. Meanwhile, Abraham was about to leave with Stella. His expression was stormy.
When Mr. Bogden heard what had happened, he rushed over and pulled Abraham aside, frantically trying to explain before things escalated.
Marie stood with Stella off to the side and huffed, "Those two nasty women... If this weren't the Bogden family's event, I would've ripped them apart." Stella said, “What you did just now was pretty much the sas ripping them apart.” Considering what had happened, it kind of was.
Marie looked her up and down. "You really held your own, Stella. Guess all those things I taught you over the years didn't go to waste." She had clearly seen everything-Stella lifting her skirt and kicking, smashing the glass into that woman's face. Abel had once told her that Stella had beaten up Jonathan and Ethan back in Rivermount, and she hadn't believed him.
She couldn't even imagine Stella laying a hand on anyone.

"You were seriously badass." Not at all like the soft, delicate little Stella she was used to.
Bzz bzz bzz-Marie's phone suddenly buzzed just as she was about to shower Stella with more praise.
"I'll get this." She stepped away to answer but didn't go far. After what had just happened with those two women, she wasn't about to take her eyes off Stella again.
As soon as Marie answered her call, Stella saw Rebecca walking toward her.
H 1/3 Tue, Aug 66% 0 X Chapter 572 The Price of Responsibility Danny, the man who had been with her earlier, was nowhere to be seen. Stella recognized him.
What Rebecca was doing with Danny, she had no idea, Finished Five minutes later- Stella and Rebecca stood together in the garden outside the Bogden estate.
Rebecca looked at her and said, "I took all of Jonathan's money." Stella replied, "Okay." She didn't care. It had nothing to do with her.
"Wanna split sof it?" Uh...
What was that supposed to mean? She wanted to give her money? Rebecca looked directly at Stella's stunned face. "Con, I know everything. The Reed family treated you like trash." "When you moved back in those two years, they didn't even give you basic living expenses. They gave it all to that Lilian." Stella felt surprisingly little as Rebecca recounted what the Reeds had done to her.
Maybe it was because she'd never really cared about them.
They were outsiders from the start. And what outsiders did never mattered.
Stella asked, "How do you know they treatedbadly?" "Jonathan. Every the went to Nightfall, he'd go on and on with his loser friends about how difficult you were, and what kind of punishments the family gave you." Rebecca's tone was full of disdain now whenever she mentioned Jonathan.
That tone. That expression.
Like she had never once respected him. No wonder she had walked away from him so easily.
Stella cleared her throat. "So... that baby-was it really Jonathan's?" know." "Of course it is. Why else would I take all his money? I've still got sbasic integrity, you know." What kind of integrity was that, exactly? Aug Chapter 572 The Price of Responsibility 66% X Finished Maybe it was the pregnancy, but her brain felt foggy. She couldn't quite keep up with the logic of this conversation.
Especially when Rebecca started talking about her "principles.” Stella just didn't get it.
Rebecca noticed her silence.
"Anyway, do you want it or not?" "Want what?" "The money. I'm offering you a cut. Reed family money." Stella: "..." What kind of offer was that? She took a deep breath and said, “Do you really think I need money right now?"
"You don't. But it's different when it's the Reed family's money. Think of it as payback-what they owe you."
Back when she was working at Nightfall, she'd heard Jonathan say all kinds of things about how Lilian was his real sister, and how he had to protect her. Rebecca had heard it all.
Stella asked, "So back then... you actually liked Jonathan?" "I liked him?" Rebecca's face twisted like she'd just swallowed a fly.
Stella: “.....” But you're pregnant. Doesn't that mean...? Seeing the look on her face, Rebecca said, "You actually believed those rumors?" The ones that claimed Rebecca had used the baby to climb the social ladder-and failed. Susan had even cto confront her multiple times, totally losing her temper each time. Rebecca said, "Who would ever like someone like him? If anything, I liked his bank account." Stella: "His money?"
"Yeah. I was broke. The baby was an accident, but once hadit, Cookm responsibility. That's all." Send Gifts 4.4K
