Chapter 189: Chapter 170: What He Owed Her in a Past Life 2

Angus Hawthorne snorted, "You’re the one with the silver tongue!"

He always felt his son was just like him, so Jasper Hawthorne’s words struck a chord with him. Naturally, there was no reason to object.

Hearing his father’s words made Jasper immensely delighted.

Coming out of his father’s study, Jasper Hawthorne left directly with his son, completely ignoring his mother’s request to take Stella Jennings home.

Eleanor Ford was furious, her son was becoming more and more outrageous!

Stella Jennings reassured her future mother-in-law, "Auntie Ford, don’t be angry. Maybe Jason is in a hurry to deal with something at the company."

She gave Jasper Hawthorne a way out, and Eleanor Ford took the opportunity to calm down, holding her hand, "Stella! Only after you and Jason are married will I truly be at ease!"

Stella smiled with a curved lip, she also wished for it! But Jason’s attitude...

"Auntie, your understanding is my biggest comfort."

"I’ll have the driver take you home."

"No need, I drove myself here."

"You’re so considerate that I’m embarrassed."

Eleanor Ford held Stella Jennings’s hand in conversation for a long time before letting her go. She was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

Just as Stella reached the door, someone called her from behind. She didn’t have to turn around to know who it was.

"Sister, wasn’t it Uncle Hawthorne who invited you here tonight?"

The insinuation in her words wasn’t lost on Stella, who turned around with cold eyes towards her younger sister, "Serena Jennings, does seeing me here upset you? You acted so well just now, and now you’re showing your true colors?"

Serena covered her mouth with a light cough, "Sister, look at what you’re saying. Shouldn’t we show sisterly affection in front of outsiders? In private, some things inevitably need to be clarified."

Stella replied coldly, "There’s nothing to say between us."

She lifted her leg to leave, but Serena hurriedly grabbed her...

Stella reacted instinctively, shaking off her grip, resulting in—

A sharp scream from Serena echoed through the entire mansion.

With a thud, Serena lost control and fell to the ground. The unexpected incident left Stella a bit at a loss; she hadn’t pushed her, she merely wanted to shake off her hand...

Hearing the commotion, everyone inside rushed out, and upon seeing Serena on the ground, their eyes all turned to Stella.

Wade Hawthorne’s family naturally looked furious, while Wyatt Hawthorne’s family took in the spectacle with a curious attitude, only Eleanor Ford looked puzzled, how could this happen?

Penny Leighton was the first to speak, "Stella Jennings! Serena is your own sister! How could you do something so vicious? Do you know it’s a matter of life and death for two?"

Her words were harsh, and her glare was so fierce it seemed she might lash out anytime...

Stella was about to speak when lying on the ground, Serena weakly interjected, "Mom, it’s not sister’s fault, I fell on my own."

Penny was infuriated, "You may protect your sister, but does she see you as her sibling? Sheer poison in woman’s heart! Hurting her own sister!"

Jasper Hawthorne had already picked up his wife from the floor, preparing to take her to the hospital. She kept complaining about her stomach pain, which couldn’t be ignored...

Lana Hawthorne expressed regret, "What’s going on here? Weren’t the sisters just fine? How did it turn like this in a blink?"

Her words were full of implication, clearly intrigued by the drama.

Stella found herself unable to defend, "I didn’t..."

Wade Hawthorne coldly rebuked, "Didn’t what? Do you dare say you didn’t push Serena? She never falls at home, but the moment she’s alone with you, she does. If it’s not you, who else? If your parents knew you hurt your own sister, what would they think of you?"

Standing to the side, Eleanor Ford’s face turned pale. It was over, whether or not Stella pushed her, entering The Hawthorne Residence would now be as hard as progressing towards heaven...

Serena Jennings, her schemes ran deep! She used herself and her unborn child as a gamble!

Receiving everyone’s reprimands, Stella stood dazed. In mere minutes, she had become a venomous murderer?

Old Master Hawthorne appeared, frowning and said unhappily, "What’s all this noise? Hurry and take Serena to the hospital! Both the adult and child can’t be in danger!"

With the old master’s words, no one dared say more, but their looks towards Stella were like poisoned daggers...

Stella struggled to speak, "Uncle Hawthorne, I didn’t..."

Old Master Hawthorne impatiently interrupted, "Enough, you should go back! I’m tired."

Even if Jason hadn’t convinced him earlier, seeing this scene, he no longer wanted Stella to marry Jason. Her scheming was clearly not as deep as her sister’s, marrying in would just bring chaos to Jason!

What he detested most was a family embroiled in intrigue and discord!

Thus, for Stella Jennings, she was now completely out of the picture.

Eleanor Ford could only swallow back the words she wanted to say...

Stella’s last glance was at Auntie Ford, who liked her, but she seemed helpless too.

Heh heh...

In the end, the one who sought to harm her was her own blood-related sister...

As she walked out of The Hawthorne Residence, every part of her felt cold, her limbs numb...

Jasper Hawthorne was already on the road when he received a call from his mother. At first, he didn’t want to pick up, but as it kept ringing, he had to answer.

"Mom, if you’re calling about Stella Jennings, please don’t. I’ve already reached an agreement with dad."

He preempted her.

Eleanor Ford’s mood was poor, "An incident just occurred, you probably can’t marry Stella in the future."

Jasper furrowed his brow, "What happened?"

Eleanor explained, "Serena, that scheming girl, used the pretense of sending Stella off, only to use her pathetic act to fall. Now everyone says Stella pushed her; your father is very angry. He hates family discord and these little tricks."

Jasper understood the gravity of the situation right away. Even though everyone knew Serena fell on purpose, she was already a part of the Hawthorne family, pregnant with a Hawthorne child. From that point, she was considered a Hawthorne, while Stella wasn’t yet...

Father realized that once Stella joined the Hawthornes, such incidents would only increase. Moreover, Serena’s cunning was much greater in comparison...

After weighing everything, father wouldn’t allow Stella to marry him anymore.

For him, this was certainly great news, but as for Serena, he would give her some appropriate punishment, as it would be the last thing he could do for Stella.
