Chapter 242

Ella didn’t understand why Bernard was calling her Mrs. Moretti.

Seeing that Ella was still teary–eyed, Bernard couldn’t help but remind her, “You really should stop crying. Mr. Moretti doesn’t like women who cry all the time. Be careful, or he might not want you anymore.”

Hearing that only made Ella cry harder.

Bernard sighed, unable to watch any longer. “Come on now. Mr. Moretti doesn’t have much patience. He won’t wait for your forever.” With that, he turned and headed downstairs.

Ella had just barely managed to stop crying, but the tears started falling again.

She hadn’t expected Lorenzo to actually send Bernard to fetch her. Clearly, she had no choice today–she had to go out with him, though she really didn’t want to.

In the end. Ella hurried to wash up and change her clothes. She was still wearing Lorenzo’s clothes.

Right before she left the room, she sent Stephanie a message. The subject line was My Will, and then she proceeded to write out a long message explaining everything.

At that moment, Stephanie was having dinner with Allison.

When she saw Ella’s message, she was so shocked she nearly spat out her food.

Is this really necessary? Stephanie thought to herself,

Allison glanced at her. “What’s wrong?”

Stephanie shook her head in disbelief. “Ella’s really lost it. She actually wrote me a will.”

She hadn’t expected Lorenzo to scare Ella so much that she’d feel the need to prepare for death. Even though Stephanie had repeatedly assured her that Lorenzo was reliable, Ella still didn’t trust him.

This was the first time Stephanie had seen Ella act so timid. She used to be pretty fearless. Now, Stephanie was genuinely curious what Lorenzo had done to terrify Ella like this.

Allison asked her, “Is this Lorenzo guy really trustworthy?”

The way Ella had been crying on the phone earlier made Allison seriously doubt it. To her, Lorenzo sounded anything but reliable.

“He is,” Stephanie replied, “Lorenzo’s solid. Ella’s just not used to him yet.”

“Who could ever get used to that?” Allison said flatly. There was no way she could. She had zero interest in living the kind of life where you could die at any moment.

Stephanie smirked. “Oh? And what about your Yanis?”

Yanis wasn’t exactly a simple man.

On the surface, he ran a medical monopoly, but no one knew what he was really up to behind the scenes.

Stephanie had once heard Sebastian mention something about Yanis. It wasn’t much, but it was enough to tell her Yanis was not the upstanding gentleman he appeared to be.
