The Hockey Star’s Remorse
Chapter 155
Chapter 155
I had hoped that the chaos in my life would somehow subside, but the next morning, I was met with yet another unsettling surprise. As I retrieved the mail from my mailbox, a white envelope with an official–looking seal caught my eye. I tore it open, my heart pounding with a mix of curiosity and dread.
Inside, I found a legal document–a protective order. My eyes widened as I read the words on the page, bile rose up my throat and I had to shove away the urge to vomit. The order stated that I was prohibited from approaching Stella within a certain distance.
I was being labeled as an “aggravated stalker.”
I clenched my fists, a mixture of disbelief and anger coursing through me. How had it come to this? Stella had taken this step to further distance herself from me for something I had no hand in doing!
I picked up my phone and dialed Scarlett’s number, hoping to find answers. After a few rings, she picked up.
“Your sister sent a protection order, Scarlett!” I practically spat the words out. “Did you know about this?”
There was a pause on the other end of the line before Scarlett’s voice came
through, apologetic and concerned. “Oh, Evie, I didn’t know she was going to take it this far. I’m so sorry!”
I took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions raging within me. “Why is she doing this, Scarlett? I never posed a threat to her or her family.”
Scarlett sighed. “She sees you as a threat now, which could work in our favor depending on how we move from here.”
I couldn’t help but scoff at the absurdity of it all. “A threat? I’ve never wanted anything but the truth to come out. She’s the one who’s been deceitful from the start!”
Scarlett’s voice softened. “I know, Evie. But right now, we need to be careful. The last thing we want is for things to escalate even further.”
I knew she was right, but the injustice of it all left a bitter taste in my mouth. “What

should I do, Scarlett?”
“I’ll talk to her,” she replied. “Maybe convince her to reconsider.”
I nodded, though I doubted Scarlett’s influence over Stella at this point. “Alright. Let me know if there’s any update.”
I paced back and forth in my apartment, the weight of the
protective order from Stella heavy on my mind. I needed someone to talk to, someone who would listen without judgment. Aria was the first person who came to mind, but I quickly remembered our recent fight, and the thought of reaching out to her felt like stepping into a lion’s den.
Instead, I grabbed my phone and dialed Lucas’s number. I know he’d been a bit busy lately, but hopefully he’d lighten up at the sound of my voice. As the phone rang, my anxiety grew, but when he finally answered, his voice was warm and welcoming.
“Evie? Hey, hon, how have you been?”
I took a deep breath, trying to steady my racing heart. “Lucas, I… I need to talk to someone. Something’s happened, and I don’t know what to do.”
