Chapter 125: Where is she?
Third Person POV
A slight smirk tugged at the corners of her lips and a wave of satisfaction washed over her when she noticed the way Laura’s face darkened visibly in the next second. She was determined to make Aurelia pay for trying to get in between her and Blake and exposing her affair with another man in front of everyone.
"That bitch!" Laura yelled out loud, causing a few people to turn around and stare at them. "What the fuck did she do to my son?! What did she do!" She spat the words out like they were poison in her mouth.
"Honey, calm down," her husband urged as he held onto her shoulders. "People are looking," he pointed out but she didn’t care.
"Don’t tell me to calm down. I don’t care that people are looking, they can look for all they want!" She yelled, her shrill voice piercing through the tension that was brewing in the air. "I knew that woman was up to no good! She’s constantly out to get my son and ruin his future. Now she’s even trying to kill him?! I won’t let this go!" Her voice was shaking with anger as rage pulsed through every single vein inside her body and her heart was pounding loudly against her chest.
"Laura, honey, please..." Mark pleaded, his voice laced with a hint of desperation as his cheeks turned red from embarrassment.
It was at this moment when Stella stood up from her seat and wrapped her fingers around Laura’s arm, as if she was trying to comfort her and calm her down. She shook her head lightly as she spoke in a gentle tone.
"I’m sure Aurelia didn’t mean for it to happen, it was all just an accident," she started. "I know they didn’t exactly part on good terms but she wouldn’t wish for anything bad to happen to him," she said, pretending to speak up for her and defend her.
"You don’t have to defend her, Stella," she said as her gaze softened ever so slightly when their gazes matched. "That conniving woman knows exactly what she is doing! She did this on purpose, I’m certain she did!" She snarled with a disdainful scorn as her eyes were filled with contempt and hatred for her ex-daughter-in-law. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly beside her body as she could not wait to avenge her son.
