The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 121 The Ring Ain’t

Kimmy tried to stop Ethan, but there was no way she could; Ethan wasn’t someone you could just stop if you wanted to.

Stella had already said she didn’t want to see him, but Kimmy couldn’t hold him back; she was so furious she nearly called the cops.

The office door slammed into the wall with a loud thud.

Inside, Stella had just opened the velvet box Louis had left behind. A huge, sparkling diamond ring sat inside. Before she had a chance to react, Ethan barged in, seething with rage.

The moment Ethan saw the ring, his mind froze.

“This is from Louis?”

So that’s why Louis had come by earlier? Was he proposing to her? Ethan’s mind went completely blank.

His eyes burned with fury as he stared at Stella; he opened his mouth to say something, but in that moment, not a single word came out.

Stella glanced at Ethan, then back at the giant diamond ring in the box.

At first, she thought she was seeing things; but no, it really was a ring. What the heck was Louis thinking? Was this supposed to be an apology gift, or a proposal? Did he honestly not understand what a ring like this meant? Or! There’s no way he was in love with me and proposing, absolutely not. Even someone with a few screws loose wouldn’t give a ring like this, right?

So the only explanation was that Louis‘ brain was so rusted he had no clue what a ring meant?

“Stella!”

Ethan roared her name. That shout carried every ounce of his fury.
