Stephanic thought, she absolutely had to have Jennifer get her a work phone to separate things out.
Otherwise, these people would never leave her alone Chris growled on the phone. "You have a studio? How cI didn't know about thic "What's it to you? Should I repon to you every tI start a new project?" Wasn't it clear enough what had been going on these past few days! Had she been too soft in the past, allowing these people to question her every time! I was- Getting so tiresome.
"How many more things are you hiding from me?" "Do I need to hide anything from you? What does my business have to do with you? Is Olivia's illness not serious enough already "She has three types of cancer now, and you still aren't rushing to help her find a good grave? Why are you constantly coming after me?" Chris completely lost his temper: "Stephanie!" Especially when she mentioned grave-everyone who was on Olivia's side hated hearing the word.
This is a completely malicious curse.
Stephanie: "What are you yelling for!" Chris: Just you wait." He ended the call with a harsh tone.
Stephanie heard the busy signal on the other end and clicked her tongue in annoyance.
She could wait. She was curious to see what other tricks, Chris would pull now.
Chris was truly funous After finding out about Stephanie's stuand then learning that she made so much money last year, his face turned green with anger.
He took a deep drag from the cigarette in his hand and growled, "Tell me, doesn't it feel like we're a joke right now Sitting in the passenger seat, Kevin broke out in cold sweat when he heard this.
He had to admit- It really was a joke! Chris and the Hart family had cut off Stephanie's financial resources, thinking it would force her to bow to themi.
1/5 22:04 Mon, 3 Mar Chapter 58 They even had most of the tenants of Cloudridge Valley pegged for when they'd be paying rent. They just thought that when Stephanie was faced with the high rent, she would eventually have no choice but to give in But then...
It turned out she owned the property in Cloudridge Valley, and last year, she earned over two million dollars. She got both money and property-cutting off her finances was simply laughable.
Kevin hesitated, but finally spoke. “To be honest, Mr. Ashford. You still don't really understand Miss Glovanni." Chris found this statement even more ironic.
Stephanie had been his fiancée for two years, and he still didn't really know her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThinking back to her lies. Chris instantly lost his composure, "Handle it." "Handle what?" "Anyone who dares to cooperate with her stuwill be considered as going against the Ashford family." Kevin hesitated, "But...
This is not good, is it? "I want her stuto be completely collapsed within a week." Chris snapped, giving Kevin no chance to speak.
"But the man behind her..." Sweat beaded on Kevin's forehead.
Kevin didn't dare to finish his sentence.
If Stephanie really had a powerful figure backing her up, it was clear they couldn't just suppress her.
Chris's eyes narrowed dangerously. "I want to see who that guy behind her is.
That guy! Since they couldn't figure out who he was, they might as well see who would step in to help her this time.
Kevin understood what Chris meant and nodded. "Got it." The news about Stephanie's stuspread throughout the entire Hart family.
Especially after it was revealed that the property in Cloudridge Valley was also hers. That news was a bombshell. At the hospital.
"Tell me, what exactly has she been hiding from us?" Catlin was pacing back and forth in the hospital room, furious.
Chad had cover.
And so had Tyler.
2/5 49% Chapter 80 Chris had been called away by a phone call from her mother After learning the full story, Chad's face was as dark as a storm cloud, withour an ounce of warmiili.
Cafumed. "What does she take us for? A bunch of tools".
"Moms, don't get so upset. I think Stephanie must have felt the money we gave her wasn't enough. She could have just told At this point, Olivia paused mid-sentence.
Even without finishing, everyone in the room was already convinced that Stephanie was being unreasonable.
They even started to assthat the money she earned was dirty.
Now, all they were thinking about was how to shut down her studio, They left Olivia's wand.
Chad instructed his assistant to contact Stephanie.
The assistant had to call several different numbers before finally getting through to her.
Stephanie was about to play a game.
The assistant said on the phone. "Miss Giovanni, Mr. Hart is now at the café opposite Cloudridge Valley. Please cout." Stephanie raised an eyebrow. "And if I don't cout, what will you do?" "If you don't, your stuis probably as good as gone.
The assistant's tone was especially forceful.
Another threat? Stephanie chuckled coldly. "Let him try and shut it down first, then we'll talk” If they're going to make a move, just do it already. They'd been going on and on for days, freezing her cand, threatening her -she was tired of it.
With that, she hung up the phone without hesitation.
On the other side of the line, Chad's assistant stared blankly at him after the call was abruptly ended.
The waiter had just set down the coffee Chad ordered and walked away.
Noticing his assistant's troubled expression, Chad frowned. "What's wrong?"
"She says, you can just shut down her Ο studio, she wany dsee you."
Chad was livid when he heard this, The content is on Ex..com!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Ahem. This rebellious girl-you didn't tell her I'm here?" The content is is on novelenglish.net! "I did, but she won't come." "Well, then go knock on the door and get her out here." Chad was furious..
3/5 104 Mon, 3 Mar Chapter 58 "Forget it. I'll go myself." He hadn't been in contact with Tyler, so he still didn't know that Stephanie didn't actually live at Cloudridge Valley now.
He marched over with rage, banging on the door for over ten minutes, but there was no response from inside.
"Stephanie Open the door!" Silence. Stillness.
The noise from banging on the door becso loud that, in the end, the neighbors complained, and even the property management showed up.
Chad was fuming as he stormed downstairs. When he looked up, he saw that the windows to Stephanie's place were all dark.
"Is she not home? What tis it now?" The assistant checked the ton his phone. "It's already past ten." "A girl out at this time? If she didn't want to stay at the Hart family and insisted on moving out, I should have never agreed." Sure enough, after she moved out, no one bothered to manage her anymore, and she was free to do whatever she wanted, right? "Call her right now. Find out where she is." I used the phone at the café just now. My number is blocked by her." Hearing "blocked” made Chad even angrier.
She was blocking everyone, even her own father.
Furious, he returned to the hospital and immediately began to scold Catlin.
He blamed her for not properly disciplining Stephanie over the years, not keeping an eye on her when she cback.
Catlin, also furious, shot back.
"What do you mean I didn't discipline her well? Who can discipline her like that? You?* Didn't she want to discipline her? For years. Stephanie had been fixated on Olivia, and even when Olivia was kicked out of the Hart family, she still refused to live there.
Catlin had tried to discipline her, but Stephanie never gave her a chance.
"Mom, Dad, stop.
When Olivia saw her parents fighting, she suddenly had a fit, her whole body convulsing with pain. It looked agonizing.
Both Chad and Catlin were startled when they saw her like this.
Catlin screamed, 'Olivia! Olivia, what's wrong? Don't scare me! Doctor, quick, get the doctor!" 4/5 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
