Chapter 371: Chapter 371

Just now, Xander Lawson was about to take Stella Hawthorne back, but Stella insisted on going to the restroom.

Xander had no choice but to let her.

Unexpectedly, as they passed by a certain private room, Stella was suddenly drawn by the scene behind the ajar door.

She stopped in her tracks, staring intently inside.

Her boyfriend was inside the private room, and beside him sat a familiar woman, who Stella also knew — Blanche Hayes from The Hayes Family.

"Blanche, I really have nothing to do with Stella Hawthorne, please accept me."

Hearing Felix’s words, anger surged in Stella’s heart. She wanted to rush inside but restrained herself, eager to hear what else he had to say. Fresh chapters posted on novel⟡fire.net

Blanche, with a haughty expression, said, "Really nothing to do with her? Others say they saw you and her always together."

Felix immediately explained, "She’s been clinging to me. I’ve already grown tired of her a long time ago. Blanche, please believe me."

The words that followed were drowned out for Stella; Felix’s earlier words stung her nerves, making her head buzz and unable to think straight.

She had insisted on being with Felix despite her family’s objections, and now it all seemed like a joke.

Silas Hawthorne probably saw that Felix wasn’t a good person, so he gave her the last boundary: hide her identity as the Hawthorne Family’s heiress.

Sure enough, Felix showed his true colors.

He was now sweet-talking Blanche Hayes and had distanced himself from her.

Stella thought she was holding on for her love with Felix, but in the end, she was the only one foolishly believing in love.

Under the dual effect of the cocktails, Stella swayed, and a large hand caught her from behind.

Xander Lawson’s body carried a scorching heat, startling her awake.

She bit her tongue, the pain bringing her sudden clarity.

Stella steadied her footing and kicked open the private room’s door with a strong kick.

Several people inside were all stunned.

Felix Fuller, more than anyone, didn’t expect to see Stella there. He looked at her with some guilt, "You... why are you here?"

This bar wasn’t a place ordinary people could enter; he had only come with Blanche Hayes, someone like Stella shouldn’t have been able to enter.

"Felix Fuller, I heard everything you just said."

Stella gritted her teeth, looking at Felix with heartbroken eyes.

Since everything was out in the open, Felix decided to lay all his cards on the table.

Recently, he had started flirting with Blanche Hayes and had long lost interest in Stella. He had initially gotten together with her only because she was pretty.

Felix wanted to use her and then dump her, but he hadn’t expected Xander Lawson was always around, thwarting his attempts.

Whenever he got slightly closer, Xander would appear out of nowhere like a cold ghost.

After dating for so long, Felix and Stella had never even held hands, which was unbearable for anyone.

Felix gradually lost interest, after all, his ultimate goal was to marry a rich heiress.

He became angry first and said, "Stella, I have long rejected you, so why are you still clinging to me? You even followed me to a place !"

Listening to this, Stella’s eyes turned red with anger, she almost wanted to slap him twice to relieve her anger.

Who was clinging to whom!

Who was the shameless one chasing after her back then!

Now that he’s involved with another woman, he changes his face instantly; a man’s ruthlessness can truly be terrifying.

Felix paid no attention to her, turning instead to coax Blanche Hayes, "Blanche, she must have found out we were here today and came over to bump into us by chance."
