Louis set down his wine glass.

“If nothing goes wrong, Stella and Abraham are just playing Ethan and the Reed family like clowns right now.”

Between the whole Verdant Villa thing and Eddie and Rianne–it was clear. Ethan and the Reed family were losing their minds over Lillian, running around like headless chickens.

Alex nodded. “No doubt they’re the clowns, Look at Ethan–he has no clue what’s really going on. Wouldn’t be surprised if this chaos blows up the whole Keene family.”

If they were going to mess with Ethan, there was no way he’d be the only one in the joke.

Meanwhile, Stella and Abraham were hidden in the shadows, watching the whole mess with detached amusement.

Louis was feeling good.

She better not stir up trouble with the wrong people again.
