Chapter 178 The True Nature Of Stella

It took a while for Cecilia to regain sclarity. She discovered that her forehead, hands, and legs were all

bandaged.

In the early hours of the morning, the sky outside was unusually dark.

The lights in the ward were not turned off. She turned her head, and under the soft light, she saw someone

sitting next to her.

“Calvin...”

She parted her pale lips slightly.

Calvin was a light sleeper, so the faint cry of a woman was enough to rouse him quickly from his

slumber.

“You're awake. How do you feel?”

The doctor had mentioned that her injuries weren't too severe as she was sitting in the backseat.

Cecilia replied, “I'm fine. The driver...”

“He’s all right. He received timely treatment.”

Feeling relieved, Cecilia asked, “What happened after | fainted?”

“Not long after you fainted, | brought my men over and caught the guy who had tried to flee. Nathaniel was also

there. He was the one who brought you to the hospital,” Calvin revealed without concealing the truth.

However, he didn't disclose to Cecilia how Nathaniel rescued her from the car. Neither did he reveal that

Nathaniel had stayed with her the entire night, only leaving half an hour ago.

Cecilia remained acutely aware that Nathaniel had stationed his men to shadow her every move, and the driver

was equally under his employ. Consequently, she understood that any incident affecting her would swiftly reach

his attention.

Thankfully, Calvin had also arrived, which scared Sean into fleeing. Otherwise, she might not have survived.

Cecilia instinctively felt that Calvin had arrived earlier than Nathaniel. She also believed that it was Calvin who

had saved her.

Perhaps loving someone is inherently selfish, but Calvin never explicitly explained this to Cecilia.

“Nathaniel has always forbiddenfrom seeing you. Does he know you're here watching over me?” Cecilia

asked.

Calvin knew what she was worried about.

“Don’t worry. He knows.”

Calvin and Nathaniel had arrived at the hospital one after the other.

When Cecilia was in the emergency room, both of them had maintained an outwardly gentlemanly demeanor,

neither one causing embarrassment for the other.

An hour ago, Nathaniel had to leave due to surgent matters. Before he left, he stationed numerous

bodyguards at the entrance. Everything within the ward was under his watchful eye.

If Calvin and Cecilia were up to something, he would know about it.

Upon noticing that Cecilia's lips were quite dry, Calvin rose to fetch her a cup of warm water. He gently fed it to

her, reassuring her, “I've already had someone keep an eye on Sean. In the future, when Sven is away, I'll have

the others protect you.”

After drinking swater, Cecilia gave a nod.

“Okay.”

Calvin helped her sit up. “I've had it investigated. The man responsible for the car accident is Sean. He used to

be a small business owner abroad. When Stella initially approached him, he even had a fiancée. Sean was quite

smitten with Stella. He broke off his engagement for her and even paid a hefty sum to boost her career as a

singer. He even wrote songs for her. But Sean eventually went bankrupt and could no longer financially support

Stella, which led her to return to the country for further development.”

Cecilia wasn’t surprised.

She had long heard about Stella's colorful past, just not in such detail.

She was convinced that if Nathaniel were to go bankrupt at this point, Stella would also choose to leave him.

Yet, many people failed to understand such reasoning.

“He’s not the only one who wantsdead. There's also Stella. | learned from him today that he did all this to

please Stella. | don’t want to send him to prison just like that,” Cecilia said.

She knew that the person who truly wanted to harm her was Stella.

Sending Sean to prison would be a good thing for Stella, as she wouldn't have anyone bothering her anymore. -

“I want him to see Stella's true nature.”

Cecilia feared that releasing Sean without consequences would leave her vulnerable to future harm.

Perhaps it would be wiser to extend a helping hand, encouraging him to abandon any pursuit of Stella altoge

Additionally, from their conversation today, she realized that Sean was an extrindividual.

Given Stella’s malicious intent, Cecilia decided to reciprocate by allowing Sean to exact his own form of «

retribution upon her.
