Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212 Unexpected Visitor

Even though my body hurt, I quickly got out of bed. After pulling back the curtains and looking down, I spotted Stella at the door.

How did she know where I lived? I didn’t recall telling her that I stayed at Amethyst Apartments.

She rang the doorbell twice more before I opened the door. Stella had a bright smile on her face as she stepped inside, holding a basket of fruits. She had an innocent expression as if she wouldn’t hurt a fly.

“Ms. Stella!” I smiled and asked, “How’d you find this place?”

“Well, you sure went through a lot!” She walked in and looked around as if she owned the place. “Your house is nice, very classic!”

“Please, have a seat! Can I get you something to drink? I have coffee and tea!”

“Anything is fine. Don’t trouble yourself!” She cheerily followed me. “How did this happen? It’s truly terrifying. Did you offend anyone? How’d you end up kidnapped?”

She seemed well–informed about my situation, which perplexed me.

“Wow, the news traveled fast!” I chuckled, though I harbored doubts.

“Atlas got a call while we were having dinner yesterday. I overheard them saying that you were missing.” she explained matter–of–factly. “I was worried, so I called Atlas later to ask. I was so relieved to hear they

found you!”

A tinge of bitterness welled up within me. So they were having dinner together.

Stella studied my face intently. “Chloe, how’d you hurt your face?”

She gasped as if she hadn’t noticed when she entered. Her delicate face displayed an exaggerated look

of shock.
