Chapter 2081
One of Stella's classmates joked, "What? Did you have a baby? You were the first to get married in our
class. Your kid must be running around by now, right?"
"Yeah. They stick to me like glue," Stella chuckled.
"You're not very thoughtful, you know. You got married without even telling us, sneaking off like that."
"Oh, come on. We had just graduated back then, and none of US had much money. How could I have
the heart to tell everyone? I couldn't just let you guys spend on me," Stella replied.
Everyone laughed upon hearing that. "After we're done visiting Luanna, let's all hang out. Bring your
husband along, too. I want to see who managed to snag our class's beauty."
Stella put her hands together and begged, "Please spare me, everyone. My husband isn't anything
special. He just runs a small business to make ends meet. He's decent-looking, but he's got a temper.
If I bring him, and he says something unpleasant, all of you will think twice about inviting me out again.”
"Stop pretending, Stella. We all know your standards."
After a few more jokes, Stella said, "Let me go in and visit Luanna first, then we can chat."
Aldor quietly followed behind with a fruit basket, thinking, 'And Mr. Kane was worried that Mrs. Kane
wouldn't be able to hold a conversation. Hah. He's overthinking it. Mrs. Kane can charm anyone with
just a few words.'
The class monitor and others were still in the ward. When Stella entered, two female classmates were
consoling the person lying in the bed.
Stella did not say anything, quietly assessing the person.
It did look like Luanna, but something seemed off.
Stella's gaze shifted from the person's face to their wrist.
Luanna had a faint birthmark on her wrist, shaped like a crescent moon. But the person lying in the bed
had nothing.
Stella pressed her lips together and said nothing.
After everyone finished their visits and left, Stella approached and sat by the bedside. She took out an
envelope from her bag and placed it next to the person's pillow.
"My condolences," she said in a low voice.
The person stiffened, suddenly looking up at her.
Stella pulled down her sleeve and said, "She has a birthmark on her wrist. Anyone who knows her well
would recognize it at a glance. You can't keep up the act for long."
The fake Luanna was speechless.
"Mr. Moore gave you the heads up, didn't he, Lina?"
The person in the hospital bed was not Luanna. It was her twin sister Lina, whom Stella had heard
Luanna mention but had yet to meet.
Lina was the one who sought Marshall's help to investigate the people mentioned in the will. Stella
deduced that it was likely his idea for Lina to pose as Luanna to gather evidence.
However, Stella found it to be too risky. 'Anyone involved with contrabands is an outlaw. What exactly is
Marshall up to?' she thought.
Lina looked at her, eyes filled with wariness. "How did you know?" she asked.
Stella's voice was grave. "It doesn't matter how I know. Lina, if you really want to avenge Luanna, you
should go to the police. Marshall is just a lawyer; he has no enforcement power. If anything happens to
you during this process, think about what would happen to Luanna and your parents."
"I agree," Marshall's voice came from the doorway as Stella finished speaking.novelbin
