Love After Divorce by BELLA

Chapter 255:

Stella thought, “That’s the only way!”

To be honest, there wasn’t anything particularly bad about staying in the RK mansion, but being watched by that man every day made her feel uncomfortable.

“By the way,” Kelly said, interrupting Stella’s thoughts, “I just remembered something. Have you paid your tuition fees yet? I haven’t paid mine for this semester. Let’s go to the college in a couple of days to take care of that!”

She then looked at Stella with concern and added, “Have you saved up enough for the tuition? If you’re short, I can lend you some money.”

Kelly knew all about Stella’s situation, especially her difficult family background. She had always helped Stella when she could. Despite growing up in the Richard family, Stella’s life had been more ordinary than most, and her situation was far from privileged.

In an ordinary family, parents usually help their children with tuition, but for Stella…

Her mother wasn’t in a position to help, and her father, David, had told Stella when she turned sixteen that she needed to start earning her own money. From that point on, he had stopped contributing to any of her living expenses or tuition fees.

Sophia, on the other hand, always had David’s support. Even though she was working now, David still gave her pocket money. Sometimes, Stella wondered if she was really David’s biological daughter. How else could there be such a big difference in how he treated her and Sophia?

When Tristan was still around, things were different. He had helped pay for Stella’s tuition ever since she was in high school. But ever since she married into the Kingston family, Tristan had disappeared from her life entirely.
