Chapter 1055 “Is it really you?” Stella couldn‘t believe it. “I thought you were in Compassvale!”
“I was.” Riley looked at her with a calm face. She displayed no emotion as if she was looking at a stranger.
“I come back this time just to tell you something.” Stella clenched her fists as if she knew what Riley would say.
“Roger is dead,” Riley stated indifferently.
She saw Stella clench her fists quietly until her nails cut into her palms. Stella was shaking, forcing down the
redness in her eyes and the turbulent emotions swirling in her heart.
“Why don‘t you seem surprised?”
Stella exhaled. “I know you are joking with me.”
She laughed, but the smile on her face was a little awkward.
“Did you make a special trip home just to pull a prank on
me?”
Riley stepped forward. Her eyes were red. “I am not
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtjoking with you. You know well enough that I won‘t lie about something like this, don‘t you?”
She grabbed Stella’s shoulders and looked into her eyes.” Roger just died yesterday. Do you know how he died?”
Her voice was suddenly filled with hatred. “He‘s dead because of Weston!”
Stella looked away, not daring to face her glare. Riley pressed on. “We were obviously living a good life in
Compassvale, but since he last disappeared for no reason, everything has changed...“. “Why won‘t he leave him
alone? Why! What has he done wrong?”
She had been waiting in Compassvale for Roger‘s return, but the news of his death arrived instead.
She heard that he was trapped in the delta and tried everything to get his family to get him back with their
influence.
But still, he was found by Weston first.
“Why didn‘t he spare Roger??? Why? He is your man, Roger‘s brother–in–law! I really cannot understand why he
has to push him over the edge!”
Riley was almost hysterical. “You are his sister! Why didn‘t you protect him? Why?!?! Why did you just watch Weston
drive him to his death?”
Her questions were like a shower of swords, stabbing into Stella‘s heart without warning.
She could no longer lie to herself nor escape anymore.
She burst into tears and started crying. “It‘s my fault. It’s all my fault...”
She closed her eyes, and her ears were flooded with the sound of the recording.
She didn‘t expect that her submission and forbearance that was intended to let Roger live a brand new life would
make him feel that he was a burden. She didn‘t expect that he wouldn’t hesitate to end his life in exchange for her
escape from the prison.
Had she known it would be like this, she should have fought her way out and escaped with Roger...
So what if Weston recaptured her?
Even if he would threaten her, so what?
Could it have ended any worse than it did? It couldn‘t.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRiley, on the other hand, had gradually calmed down.
She took a deep breath. “It seems you already know about this. I came here this time just to tell you.”
She was in love with Roger, and Stella was his most beloved sister, so she couldn‘t really hate her no matter how
she tried.
Maybe, she was just projecting her anger onto Stella.
However, she knew that it would not be something Roger would want to see.
Stella closed her eyes tightly, but the tears only kept flowing harder.
Her voice was so hoarse she could only repeat these exact words: “It‘s my fault...”
Riley watched as she slumped herself against the wall, squatting slowly, and shot her a condescending look.
“He might be dead, but do you really want him to die in vain?”
Stella stared into the void with her red eyes. After a long time, she shook her head slowly.
