Chapter 229

Lucas’ face sank “You still don’t know your mistake until now?”

“What did I do wrong? All I did was go out to have fun! Besides, I was the one who took Ella there.
What does it have to do with hier? Why are you taking it out on her?”

Seeing that the couple were about to argue, Stella had to intervenc. She explained, “Yvonne took me
out to relax that day. We didn’t do anything there. She only watched me play the piano.” Lucas cast an
indifferent glance at her. His eyes were emotionless, but Stella could feel his coldness.

“I’m sure Ms. Steele has somewhere to go even if the training center is closed. With Weston, you’ll
never have to worry about anything in your life. You won’t need Yvonne’s help either.”

Stella’s eyes slickered for a moment. Then, she kept her eyes down. She suddenly smiled. “Yes. I do
have a lot of unimaginable benefits from staying with Weston. Thank you for the reminder.”

She felt guilty towards Yvonne, but not towards Lucas. Lucas did not expect Stella to say that and
sneered. He turned to Yvonne, “Are you done? If you are, leave with me.” Yvonne did not want to
leave. “You should go to work and leave me alone!” “I took the day off. Yvonne, don’t test my patience.”
Yvonne became angrier. “I’ve told you a million times! Weston is the one who forced Ella into it! I’ve
never known you to be a person with double standards! Anyway, these aren’t our affairs. It’s between
Weston and Ella. Why do you blame Ella and not Weston?” “I don’t blame either of them,” Lucas cut
her off and grabbed her wrist. “Their affair is none of my business. All I know is that it’s been giving me
a lot of headaches these days.” He would never tell Yvonne that he did not like her paying attention to
anyone else other than him. Yvonne had always been around him ever since she was a child. She
always devoted all her attention to him. After they got married, Lucas became very busy with his work.
The hospital matters kept him busy.





Yvonne complained about how he had less time for her. He was not sure when it started, but she
eventually complained less.

Some time ago, he deliberately took time off to be with her. However, she said she was busy and had
to go to work

Soon, Ella came into her life and took much of her attention.

Yvonne would rather spend time with Ella than with him at home. It was unlike him to get

upset over such a trivial matter, but he refused to let Yvonne understand his real thoughts. He wanted
to drag her away without saying a word.

Yvonne hurriedly looked at Stella. “Ella, I-”

“I’m fine,” Stella cut her off with a smile. “You should go back I’m going back too.”

Yvonne finally remembered about Ella’s younger brother. She was able to help her hide her matter by
telling her brother that she was away on a business trip and could not come home. However, her
brother would eventually find out the truth after the training center’s closure.

What excuse would Ella use then?

Stella had considered Yvonne’s concern too.

She looked at the time and gave it a thought. It was still early, so she went back to Roger and her
house.

She had been away for a few days. Somehow, she had a strange feeling coming home again.
