Chapter 1232

Stella’s heart fluttered when Keegan said that they would be together even after death. “You’re such anidiot,” she said after a while.

The next day, news came from Xenia that Albert and Hylda had gotten into a heated argument. In theend, Hylda was kicked out of the house.

When Albert went to the police station to pick up Hugo, he noticed Hylda’s nervous demeanor, whichraised his suspicion. He called Sophia to the hospital and had the two children take a DNA test alongwith the deceased baby from the miscarriage. The results showed that only Sophia was Albert’sdaughter. Hugo was not his biological child.

Albert was furious and started a physical altercation with Hylda at the hospital. Despite Hylda’sdefiance, she refused to reveal the identity of the biological father. This did not please Albert, and itcaused him to leave Hylda and Hugo at the hospital. He then visited Xenia and unloaded everything onher the following day.

“Albert looked like he was afraid of Hylda. I can’t believe he hasn’t considered divorce yet after thathuge fight,” Xenia noted.

Stella’s lips curled into a knowing smile. ‘That’s because Hylda had leverage over him. He wouldn’tdare leave her. No matter how much she betrayed him, he wouldn’t dare to leave her. Even if hewanted a divorce, Hylda would demand substantial compensation given her character. And, Albertwouldn’t want to fork out his money, so…’

“That’s fine. Things would be more difficult if he got a divorce,” Stella said.

“What should we do next?”novelbin

“Hmm… That ‘baby’ in your belly must mean much more to him now. Get him to give you a properstatus. If that doesn’t happen, reel him in and get him to give you financial support. It’ll be a good timeto strike when he and Hylda dispute about the money.”

It was evident that Hylda was in it for wealth and status rather than love. Now that her status was gone,money became her top priority.

Stella did not expect that Hylda would keep the identity of her other lover hidden for so long. There’s noway a profit-driven person like her actually likes her secret partner that much. She must be protectingIan because she knows that nothing will change Albert’s mind anymore. Plus, Hylda would not have toworry about getting support for Hugo as long as Ian prospers in the Moore family.’

As Stella pondered about the situation, her phone rang. She saw that it was Marshall and answered thecall.

“Stella, are you free these days?”

“Huh?” Stella responded cautiously. “Why? What’s up?”

“I’ve gathered information about the Hall family mansion. Can we meet up to discuss the findings?”

Stella was about to agree when she recalled Keegan being jealous of Marshall. “Can’t we just talk onthe phone?” she asked.

Marshall chuckled. “Sure, but it’s easier for you to understand the situation if you have the documentsin front of you.”

“It’s alright. Just tell me over the phone. I’m sure I’ll get it.”
