Chapter 314

After three years of running away, getting a scolding was inevitable. Michael sternly eyed Stephanie as if he wanted to devour her with his gaze.

Over the years, everyone was worried Stephanie might get into trouble. Even though they later found out she rarely encountered losses with those folks in Long Harbor, three years of constant worry took a toll on their hearts.

Facing Michael’s stern and cold gaze, Stephanie quickly averted her eyes. “Michael, I was wrong.”

“Why not keep hiding? Are you so afraid of Richard? You’re timid,” Michael said.

Stephanie fell silent. But it wasn’t just Richard causing trouble back then; there were also those forces constantly eyeing the Giovanni family greedily.

Even a slight distraction on Sebastian’s part could have led to dire consequences. Stephanie was really scared.

Michael asked, “What’s the name of that family from Long Harbor?”

“The Hart family,” Stephanie replied.

“Not that family.” Michael glared at her angrily. He thought, “The family is not a threat at all.

Judging by how that family treated Stephanie if Stephanie still recognized them, it would be a failure in our upbringing.

Stephanie asked, “The Ashford family?”

When the Ashford family was mentioned, Michael snorted again, “If Olivia doesn’t come back, do you truly think you’ll marry him?” Remembering that only a week was left until the wedding, Michael felt a surge of anger in his chest.

Stephanie looked down and murmured, “She’ll come back.”

Michael asked, “How do you know?”

“Olivia can’t stand to see me doing well,” Stephanie replied.

Beth and Michael fell silent. They thought, ‘Is this how Stephanie explained it?‘

However, Stephanie was telling the truth. She was convinced Olivia would rush back to Long Harbor to stop it. Even if Olivia didn’t make it in time, Stephanie had backup plans to ensure she had to return.

In the end, Stephanie took advantage of favorable circumstances. All the negative press was directed at the Ashford and the Hart family.
