Chapter 496
Love After Divorce by BELLA
Chapter 495:
Stella, who had fainted, did not wake up for an entire day.
Her memory had always been vague and lingered in the past.
Perhaps it was instinct that made her long to return to the life she wanted.
At that time, Stella had just entered her second year of college. She should have been living carefree during her remaining three years at university. But because of his appearance, everything had ruined those years.
At that time, due to some financial problems in the Richard familyâs company, RK from the Kingston family suddenly appeared in City X and offered to help the Richard family through their crisis. The reason was very simple: he wanted to marry his daughter.
Originally, Stellaâs sister, Sophia, should have been responsible for this. However, Sophia and James Johnson were passionately in love and unwilling to marry a stranger they had never met. At this point, the role of the sacrificial pawn fell to Stella.
Stellaâs stepmother, Isabella, and Sophia were discussing with David, Stellaâs father, about getting Stella to marry RK.
Thus, Stella became the bride-to-be.
Stella, a university student in her second year, was about to step into the wedding hall...
And she couldnât stop the wedding. She didnât want her father to beg others at such a young age.
Stella returned to college after a very unhappy dinner at home.
When Stella returned, everyone was still in the self-study room, so the campus was empty.
Stella walked alone along the campus path, reflecting on what had happened that day.
gαâηÏvíâs.com hosts exclusive updates âHey, Stella, what are you thinking about? You seem so absorbed.â Damien suddenly jumped out from behind her and startled her.
âYou donât understand my sadness!â Stella looked up at the sky. Gazing at the starless sky, she felt a sense of hopelessness in her heart.
âWhy donât you tell me your sorrow? I can help you analyze how to deal with it.â
âYou...? Forget it.â Stella glanced at Damien and walked toward the dormitory, leaving him staring at her retreating figure.
âStella, when will you understand my feelings for you? Is it that hard to notice? Everyone knows that I like you, but you donât seem to know. Are you pretending not to know?â
âStella, youâre back. How do you feel after going home? Did they bully you?â Emily looked listless.
As soon as Stella returned, she climbed onto the bed and buried her head in the quilt, leaving Emily worried about her.
âHe didnât bully me, but...â
âBut what? Hurry up and tell me; donât worry about me.â Emily ran to Stellaâs side and pulled her up.
âI am getting married. Sob, sob... I donât want to get married so early! Besides, I donât even know who he is or what he looks like.
I want to marry someone I love! Ah, ah, ah...â
Stella said unhappily.
âI donât think itâs too late. Go home and tell them youâre going to get married only after you finish college.â Emily asked in surprise, âWhat happened to your family? Why did they let you get married in your second year?â
âYes, it shouldnât have been me, but...â
âWhat are you talking about? Donât dawdle. Is it because of the trap Sophia set for you?â Emily asked.
Stella usually shared a lot about her home life with Emily, so now that something serious had happened, Emily could guess.
âSophia was supposed to be the one to get married, but she said she was about to get engaged to James Johnson while she was in love. Thatâs why she pushed me into this.â
âF*ck, why are they so inhumane? Youâre only in your second year, and they want you to get married. That Sophia is heartless!
Even if she has a boyfriend, she canât push you out like this!â
Emily said angrily, her frustration palpable. She wished she could avenge Stella right then.
âWhat can I do...? I canât just watch the Richard family fall apart like this.â Stella lowered her head as she spoke.
Emily asked with concern, âDo you know who it is?â
Stella shook her head. âI donât know what he looks like. All I know is that his name is Rene Kingston, RK.â
âRene Kingston? Thatâs the rich guy!â Emily exclaimed in surprise.
Stella sat up, holding a pillow in her arms, lost in thought.
His identity still confused her. After all, they were just students now, so they didnât know much about the outside world.
Meanwhile, Emily stood up and took her mobile phone to the bathroom to secretly call Tristan.
âBrother Tristan.â
âMm, whatâs wrong, Emily? Why are you calling me at this hour?â
âBrother Tristan, donât you know that Stella is getting married?â
Emily heard the sound of something breaking on the other side of the phone.
âBrother Tristan, are you okay?â Emily assumed Tristan knew about Stellaâs upcoming marriage and called to ask about the situation, but she didnât expect he was unaware.
âItâs okay. How did you find out that Stella is getting married? With whom? When did this happen?â On the other end of the phone, Tristan looked at the broken cup under his feet, frowning.
