The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 281 It was twins

When it came to Tessa, Stella really thought she had that kind of gossip magnet energy. Wherever she went, she could casually overhear something, and it always turned out to be explosive.

Tessa said, “Mrs. Keene is trying to find a marriage match for Ethan. The news is already out.”

Stella raised her eyebrows. “If Lillian finds out, won’t she be furious?”
