Chapter 1612
As Stella felt suffocated, she heard a series of urgent knocks on the door outside. Knock after knock,
pounding incessantly… Stella didn’t want to deal with it, but she faintly heard Taya’s anxious voice…
“Stella, open the door!”
Taya and Harper had visited Stella many times after learning about Karen’s situation, but Stella had
always sent them away with the excuse of “I’m fine.” Stella acted like a normal person, going to work
every day and coming home on time, making them believe that she could get through it.
But tonight, Taya couldn’t sleep. She was restless and worried, thinking about Stella’s experiences.
She couldn’t shake the feeling that what Stella had gone through wasn’t just a normal annoyance, but
being used by loved ones since pup period and then killing her beloved herself. How could she possibly
handle
all of that?
She was afraid that Stella was pretending to be fine on the surface but secretly devouring all the pain
alone. She feared that, in the end, Stella wouldn’t be able to bear it and might do something foolish. So
she quickly got out of bed, threw on some clothes, and went to find Stella.
Griffon also came. He leaned back in the car seat, his face
slightly turned, gazing at the knocking Taya. She knocked for a

He raised his finger, about to get out of the car and push the door open, when the door opened. Stella,
soaked and dripping wet, appeared under the streetlight. Her face was pale, devoid of color, as if she
had just experienced a life-or-death battle. She looked sickly…
Stella came out wrapped in a towel. Griffon had some doubts, but he didn’t delve into it. He simply
looked away, not glancing at her, and stared straight ahead at the car…
Taya saw that Stella finally opened the door and quickly reached out to hold her hand. “You look so
pale, are you sick?”
Stella had initially thought about dying, but she realized that there were still many things left unsaid. At
the very least, she needed to let the people who loved her know not to worry about her, instead of
silently leaving like this. So she got out of the bathtub…
She held Taya’s hand and smiled, shaking her head. “I was just taking a bath in the bathroom. I
probably soaked my face too long…”
After speaking, she patted Taya’s hand. “I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Taya couldn’t help but worry. “You didn’t open the door for so long, I thought…”
Stella smirked. “You didn’t think I would do something foolish,
did you?”
Taya stared into Stella’s eyes, not saying a word, but her expression gave a response.
Seeing that, Stella couldn’t help but raise the corner of her lips and laughed. “Silly, do you really think I
would do something foolish over such a small matter?”
Stella’s apparent ease and indifference made it difficult for Taya to discern the truth. She could only
open her arms and give her a hug.
“If you can’t handle it, come to me or Harper. We will always be by your side, never leaving…”
Taya’s embrace was always warm and comforting. Whenever she leaned on her shoulder, it was easy
to be healed. But this time, Stella couldn’t feel it. Her whole body was cold, making her feel like she
was in the Arctic. Even Taya couldn’t melt her.
Stella’s inner self was already in hell, enveloped in darkness. No one could save her, not even light. In
secret, she was
already crawling in the darkness, yet she still wore a mask of nonchalance on her face and patted
Taya’s back, pretending everything was fine.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. If something happens, I would have already come to you and Harper to pour
my heart out…”
While comforting Taya, she glanced at the man sitting in the luxury car. She knew Alpha had come for

“Alright, you’ve seen me. I’m not in trouble and I’m doing just fine. So go home and get some sleep,
don’t keep your husband waiting…”
As they parted, she teased Taya, just like before.
Taya sighed with relief at seeing Stella like this, but she still worried. “Okay, let me tell Griffon and ask
him to go back first. Tonight, I’ll stay with you.”
Stella was startled when she heard that and quickly stopped
Taya.
“If you stay here for the night, he will level this house…”
“He wouldn’t dare.”
“He would!”
Taya wanted to say something else, but Stella had already pushed her towards the door.
“You should go back quickly and stop bothering me. I need to sleep…”
Stella sent Taya away and closed the door. Leaning against it, she let her body go weak, sliding down
to the floor. The room only had a dimly lit small lamp, casting a flickering light on her pale face. She
was thinking about nothing, feeling that everything in the world had become meaningless. Yet, even
though there were still many people who loved her, why couldn’t she feel it anymore?
