Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 209

Chapter 209 209: You aren't a rebound

The night was long, and Ella couldn't sleep. The voice and those words echoed in her thoughts like a broken record.

Why, after all these years, does she hear his voice again.

What does he want from her now?

As she continued to contemplate, she became aware that her anxiousness was gradually increasing. It wasn't good, so she got up and hurriedly climbed down the bed.

Ella wanted fresh air, and her balcony was the only location where she could clear her mind.

Nobody knew what happened to her, not Max or her mother. Stefan wasn't even on the list yet.

She hoped that after all these years, she would finally be free of the invisible chain that had been holding her.

But she was mistaken.

After all, terrible memories are not readily erased. You can move on, yet they remain with you.

The restlessness continued for a few minutes.

Ella believed that with time, she would recover, but she never did. She carried it in her heart till today, and when she finally found happiness, her past came back to haunt her.

"Ah!" She cursed inwardly, stormed into her room, grabbed her phone, and promptly contacted Stefan.

He was the only one who could make her feel better, but then a realization hit her, and she abruptly ended the call.

"What's wrong with you, Ella? He must be asleep," she admonished herself, ready to put the phone back on the table when he called.

Ella closed her eyes as Stefan's name flashed across the screen, cursing mentally before answering.

"Why are you still awake?" Stefan inquired.

The unexpected call from her late at night puzzled him, and he hurriedly called her back, assuming it was an emergency.
