Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

Chapter 17

When Chris first saw the necklace, an image of Olivia wearing it popped into his head.

But now, with it hanging around Stephanie’s neck, he felt something stir inside him—a strange, unexplained feeling.

Why are you just getting back? I asked you to pick up Stefi, but she came back on her own,” Grace said, noticing Chris standing there in the doorway.

Chris’s gare lingered on the necklace as he spoke.

Grace paned Stephanie’s hand and smiled warmly. “Stefi, why don’t you stay here for a moment? Chris and I need to talk.”

Stephanie gave a slight nod, and Grace shot Chris a pointed look, signaling for him to follow her upstairs.

Stephanie understood immediately–it was probably about Olivia. Grace was probably about to give Chris another lecture.

The two of them stayed upstairs for about half an hour.

Grace turned to Stephanie with a bright smile. “Stefi, I’m going to check on something in the kitchen. You and Chris should catch up.

Without waiting for a response, she left, taking the butler and maids with her, leaving just Chris and Stephanie alone.

Now alone, Stephanie was absorbed in a phone game.

Chris could hear the loud “bang, bang, bang” of cannon fire coming from her phone. He instantly recognized it as one of the most popular games right now.

Chris opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw Stephanie completely absorbed in her phone, furiously tapping away at her game, he hesitated.

She didn’t seem to care at all about him–or anything going on around her.
