The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 560 What You Deserve

The word “dog” hit Ethan square in the skull.

A loud crack echoed in his mind, as if something had struck him from behind. Everything went blank.

“You called me a dog?”

Back in Rivermount, she always claimed to be mistreated. Her sharp tongue was understandable then.

But now? Even in Falvaria, she still had that same vicious mouth?

Sitting on the bed, Stella picked up her water glass, took a sip, and said with a cold smile, “I said you’re not even as good as a dog.”

Why the hell can’t I forget her? Why do I remember everything about her?

Is it because of that mouth?

Just as Stella was about to deliver another blow, a knock sounded on the door.

Marie’s voice came from outside. “Stella, you can’t sleep anymore. We’re running out of time.”

“Okay, I’m coming.”

She answered the door, then ended the call without hesitation.

Marie, hearing her response, opened the door and stepped in.

“Who were you talking to?”

“Ethan,” Stella said as she blocked his number.

These Rivermount people were really persistent. They even started using Falvaria numbers just to get through.

When Marie heard the name, her expression soured.

“You’re still in touch with him?”

To her, everyone from the Keene family or Reed family was better off never being contacted again.

“Wait for me. When I get the time, I’ll build you a Rivermount firewall.”

Any number from Rivermount gets blocked–let’s see how they try to reach you then.

Stella shook her head. “It won’t work. Jonathan and Ethan both used Falvaria numbers to call me today.”

Marie was genuinely irritated.
