Chapter 131: The Threat
Third Person POV
Continuation of Flashback
His eyes lit up once again and a look of familiarity crossed his face for a fleeting moment before he started nodding profusely. "That’s right, it’s her! She’s the bitch that reported me. She was just an outsider passing by at that time. Her and that stupid husband of hers should have minded their own business."
Stella felt her heart sink to the pit of her stomach at that exact moment. She knew Aurelia better than he ever did. This wasn’t just a pure coincidence, it was something more than that.

"No..." She was shaking her head as she murmured under her breath, her voice barely above a whisper. "No, no, no!" She screamed out loud this time, raising her voice and it cracked as the last word left her parted lips. She was becoming more and more agitated as her dark brown eyes burned with a fiery blaze.

She lifted her head to meet his eyes. "This isn’t just a coincidence, Aaron. She knows about us. She knows that you are cheating on your wife with me. She’s out to get us, she wants revenge."
