Chapter 262

[ 604 words ]

At this point, Ursula’s voice choked up with emotion.

The term “biological daughter” made Cloudia’s heart skip a beat in anger. She wanted to say that she had already cut ties with Stella, but considering the current situation of the company, the very fate of it was now in Stella’s hands. Ursula, unable to hold back her tears, sobbed. “I always treated her like a sister. I didn’t want her to turn out this way.”

“Enough,” Yorick interrupted, his temples throbbing.

Ursula and Cloudia, sensing his displeasure, turned to him, puzzled.

Yorick felt a heaviness in his chest, “Stella was raised in the Lugar family.”

At this, both Cloudia’s and Ursula’s faces froze in astonishment.

Cloudia’s breathing became tense. “What do you mean?”

Equally confused, Ursula looked at Yorick. “Yeah, Rick, what do you know?”

Raised in the Lugar family? Stella?

The Lugar family of Ferrowland, the name that sent shivers down everyone’s spine.

Yorick closed his eyes for a moment. The mere thought of Stella being part of the Lugar family made him stiffen.

“Stella is Ronald’s sister.”

Ronald?

The name sounded familiar, but they hadn’t realized it referred to the renowned Mr. Quinn. His father was from Zylandia, his mother from Ferrowland, and his father had achieved great things in Ferrowland. “Ronald, also Mr. Quinn?”

Ursula caught on immediately, her breath quickening as she turned to Yorick.

Her pupils dilated in disbelief, unable to fathom that Stella was indeed the sister of Ferrowland’s famous Mr. Quinn.

Ursula took several deep breaths to calm herself.

Raised in the Lugar family, the heiress to the Lugar legacy, the sister of the man known as Mr. Quinn?

Ursula and Cloudia exchanged stunned glances.

Ursula lifted her head. “Rick, are you sure?”

At this moment, Ursula’s heart was in turmoil, filled with jealousy, she couldn’t bring herself to believe Stella was raised in the Lugar family. Yorick’s breath grew colder.

“Absolutely sure.”

This was something his own father had confirmed, there was no mistake, Stella… was indeed Ronald’s sister.

Upon hearing this news, Yorick’s mind went blank! Even now, he was struggling to come to terms with it.

Cloudia’s breathing became erratic. “How could this be? How…”

She looked at Yorick in disbelief.

“Wait, the Lugar family announced years ago that they had lost a princess. Is it her?”

Ursula knew about it. She was the one who had told Cloudia.

Over at Spring Hill.

Stella was hiding under the covers, refusing to come out. Her muffled voice came from beneath. “Go away. Just go.”

“Star, we can’t joke about this injury. Let me see it.”

“Stop mentioning it! If you keep saying that, I won’t talk to you anymore.”

Her tone carried a hint of annoyance.

Ronald, feeling helpless, reached to pull the covers off her head, but Stella had wrapped herself up tightly.

“You keep pulling, ugh, I’m going to call Mom.”

At that, Ronald’s hands stiffened. Then, he scooped her up, blankets and all, and sat her on his lap.

“Ouch, it hurts!”

Stella’s whimpering voice came through as Ronald peeled the blanket from her face.

What met his gaze was Stella’s face, flushed red from holding her breath.

Ronald’s expression was stern.

Stella looked up at him, her eyes brimming with unshed tears, making her seem all the more pitiable.

Ronald sighed. “Does it hurt a lot?”

Stella nodded, looking every bit the very picture of misery.
