“Since you’ve acknowledged it, you should apologize to Cecilia, right?” Zachary asked.

Stella nodded repeatedly. “Yes. I will apologize to Ceci.”

“All right. I hope you’ve thought this through. A simple verbal apology won’t suffice. Consider how you can demonstrate sincerity in your apology. Zachary leaned against the sofa nonchalantly, glaring at her.

After hearing this, Stella could only reply, “All right, I will.”

Zachary finally stood up. “I’m giving you three days. The time, don’t even think about faking your death or running away.”

He had instructed his men to keep a watchful eye on Stella, ensuring that she couldn’t possibly leave Tudela or his sight

Once he left, Stella collapsed to the ground.

Lately, her life had been utterly miserable. However, she never forgot her plan to make a comeback and exact her revenge on Cecilia, determined to climb her way back up the social ladder of affluent society.

She had also seen the news of Cassandra marrying Nicholas.

She also knew that Paula had died.

Although significant events had unfolded during that time, Stella unfortunately remained on the sidelines,

Nevertheless, during this period, Stella noticed someone she could count on. The person was Queenie.

She was the CEO of Jamieson Group, and rumors suggested that even Niel had to show her some respect

Stella had seen the newspaper advertisement that Queenie had placed, expressing her desire to find her long–lost daughter from years ago.

She noticed that the address listed was the orphanage where she had once lived.

Initially, Stella had considered reaching out, believing there was a chance she might be Queenie’s daughter.

With her stunning looks, she felt her parents must have been extraordinary.

However, just a few days ago, Queenie made another public announcement, stating that she had found her daughter.

“Why is my life so miserable? Why can’t I come from a well–off family?” Stella muttered to herself as she returned to her. dwelling in the evening

The woman she worked with couldn’t help but try to comfort her. “Don’t overthink it. We’re all just ordinary folks. What matters most to us is making money.”

Stella bristled at the words. “You’re ordinary, not me.”

She constantly felt like a prominent young lady stranded in a godforsaken land.

Seeing the situation, the woman scoffed, “Crazy b*tch.”

“You’re the crazy one! Did you know I used to be a big star? Go look it up online!” Stella retorted.

“So what if you were a star? You’re still stuck in this godforsaken place with the rest of us,” the roommate mocked.

Upon hearing her words, Stella felt compelled to silence herself, unwilling to accept the truth.

Indeed, she had once been a big star, but now she was no different from the women around her.

To add to her frustration, she had to find a way to apologize to Cecilia within three days.

Meanwhile, after returning, Nathaniel went straight to Cecilia’s residence and had the butler open the door the door open, he noticed she was comfortably sprawled out on the bed, deep in slumber.

At first, Cecilia had been a bit upset when she overheard Nathaniel and Zachary discussing their divorce. However, the quickly reminded herself that anger was detrimental to her health, and besides, the fact remained that they had already signed the divorce papers.

She would no longer allow herself to be upset by insignificant remarks as she had in the past.

With that in mind, the dozed off and fell into a deep sleep.

Nathaniel moved closer, observing Cecilia’s peaceful slumber, feeling an undeniable sense of helplessness.

It seemed as though she didn’t care about him at all anymore. No matter what he said or did, she just didn’t respond.

He reached out, his large hand gently resting on Cecilia’s face.

When she stirred awake in a daze, the first thing she saw was him. For a moment, she thought she was dreaming closed her eyes again.

Upon seeing the situation, Nathaniel leaned in, his lips brushing softly against hers.
