Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

No Ads Chapter 153 Chapter 153 Ella was right. Since even Chris couldn't pull any strings, then there was no hospital in Long Harbor that would admit Oliver Stephanie thought for a moment. "Then what about going abroad?" Ella responded. "That's her only option. Otherwise, she won't survive here in Long Harbor. You didn't see her, the was discharged in a wheelchair, so weak she could barely sit up.

"And she still had the nerve to fight with you? Even if she managed to take Chris away, what's she going to do with him? She doesn't even have the health to enjoy it." Stephanie scoffed, "That's a crude way to put it." 'Ella doesn't even have a boyfriend, and she's already making dirty jokes? she thought.

Ella clicked her tongue. "What? You don't get it? Just because I don't have a boyfriend doesn't mean I don't know how things work. You're just inexperienced." Stephanie was momentarily stunned. The way Ella put it left her with no room to argue.

Ella could say that to her yesterday, but now, everything had changed. Stephanie was a full-fledged woman "Next, the Hart family is definitely going to clooking for you non-stop. It's going to be a nightmare, Ella said. After all, both the mess at the Hart Group and Olivia's treatment were now tied to Stephanie.

Stephanie huffed, "They won't find me." Her words were crisp, cold, and merciless.

Ella laughed. "Hey, girl, I respect that. That's how it should be. Who the hell volunteers to be someone else's backup plan, right?" Ella had watched for years as the Hart family treated Stephanie terribly, and the anger had been simmering inside her.

But at least Stephanie wasn't the type to beg for their approval.

If they had even a shred of decency, they wouldn't be crawling back now after treating Stephanie so badly. Stephanie wasn't the type to tolerate endless harassment. If they pushed her too far, they might end up getting a good beating instead.

***** Just like Ella predicted, the Hart family members were now running around in a panic, desperate to find Stephanie.

Chris had failed to purchase Whispering Bay, and Olivia had been forcibly discharged from the hospital. Catlin had taken her straight back to the Hart residence. But without medical treatment, Olivia was barely holding on. "Mom, this is all Stephanie's doing, isn't it? She had her foster brother do this to me," Olivia said through gritted teeth, trying to endure the pain as beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.

Catlin's heart ached as she looked at her.

Ever since they got back, Catlin had been trying to contact Stephanie. But no matter how many numbers she used, they were all blocked.

"Olivia, don't panic. I will figure something out. I swear I will," Catlin said.

1/4 Chapter 153 Olivia trembled all over. "Mom, am I going to die? I don't want to die. Please, save me. Mom, I really don't want to die At this moment, Olivia was completely terrified. She had never imagined that Stephanie would be able to control her fate like this. She was desperate to understand where Stephanie had gotten this kind of power Upon hearing Olivia's panicked voice over and over, Catlin's heart clenched even tighter. "I will save you I promise. Don't worry. I won't let you die. I won't." But Olivia couldn't even get into a hospital.

After being discharged, they had tried several other hospitals, hoping to get her admitted.

But as soon as the hospitals heard that the patient was Olivia, they all found various excuses to refuse.

Just moments ago, Catlin had made multiple calls, trying to convince doctors to cto their home. But every attempt failed. Now, they were truly at a loss.

Catlin was furious. Without medication, Olivia wouldn't last much longer.

"Mom, I know I was wrong. I'll give you back to Stephanie. If that's what she wants, tell her that I'll return everything I don't want anything anymore. I'll give it all back to her," Olivia said, her tearful eyes filled with despair.

For the first time, Olivia was truly panicking. "Mom, tell Stephanie. Tell her I know I was wrong. I won't fight her for you anymore." Catlin pulled Olivia into a tight embrace. "Olivia, calm down." "Mom, I really know I was wrong. I was terrible. I hurt Stephanie. I admit it," Olivia continued.

They had gone to four different hospitals, but not a single one would take her in.

At this moment, Olivia finally realized the severity of the situation. And sheer terror engulfed her.

** Desperate and frantic, both Catlin and Olivia kept dialing Stephanie's number. But no matter how many times they tried, they couldn't get through.

Just as they were losing their minds, Stephanie's call cthrough. She had called Olivia's phone directly. “You didn't move into Whispering Bay. You lost the bet. Remember to send300 thousand dollars." Olivia froze on the spot. Her breathing becslow and heavy. Her face turned pale, and her chest tightened with unbearable pressure. "Where are you?" she asked.

"Whispering Bay. I live here. Chris is really useless, huh? Couldn't even figure that out before telling you?" Stephanie said casually.

Hearing that Stephanie was actually living in Whispering Bay, Olivia felt her lungs seize up. It was like a knife had been plunged straight into her chest.

Not long ago, she had boasted to everyone that Chris was buying Whispering Bay for her recovery. She had flaunted it shamelessly, rubbing it with Stephanie's dignity every chance she got.

But now, everything changed.

"You've been living there ever since you moved out of Cloudridge Valley?" Olivia asked.

"Yeah. Now don't forget my 300 thousand dollars," Stephanie replied.

2/4 52% Chapter 153 In just a few sentences, Stephanie had already mentioned the 300 thousand dollars twice, which only intensified Olivia's distress.

And that was not even the worst part. Stephanie then added, "When are you going to pay me? We agreed. No backing out on this." Olivia had just turned to Catlin with a pitiful look in her eyes when Stephanie suddenly hit her with that remark. It was like driving another knife straight into her chest.

Olivia trembled as she spoke. "I don't have that much money" She really did not. That murderer had been pestering her for money every other day, and she was already at her limit.

On the other end of the line, Stephanie casually picked up a piece of tangerine and popped it into her mouth. "Oh? No money? That's not what you said when you made the bet." Olivia froze. Back when she made the bet, she had been so sure of her victory. She had overestimated Chris' abilities.

She had thought she could get a cut from the more than two million dollars Stephanie had made last year. But after multiple failed attempts, she had only ended up losing more and more.

Just thinking about it made Olivia furious. Her stomach twisted in anger.

Stephanie smirked. "What? Thinking about skipping out on your debt?" Sebastian walked in just in tto see Stephanie lying on the bed, hugging a fruit platter while eating tangerines. He had been the one to send them over.

He had once overheard a doctor mention that eating fruits rich in vitamin C helped people recover faster from fevers.

Stephanie saw him enter and was about to hang up the phone.

But before she could, Olivia's desperate voice cthrough. "Stefi, I was wrong before. I'm sorry. Please, just letgo, okay?" Stephanie paused, momentarily stunned by Olivia's words. "Are you seriously trying to get out of paying?" Olivia really was something. She could be shameless when she needed to be. All this groveling, just so she would not have to cough up the money.

Stephanie was done messing with her. She had gotten enough amusement out of this.

Just as she was about to hang up, Olivia choked out, “Stefi, I really know I was wrong.” Her voice trembled with sobs. I give Mom and Dad back to you. I'll leave the Hart family.

Please, just don't mess with my access to hospitals. I'm begging you." Now that her life was completely in Stephanie's hands, Olivia was truly terrified.

But when Stephanie heard her mention giving those people back, her temper flared instantly COR, Hell no. You dan keep that bunch of parasites for yourself." With that, Stephanie hung up without hesitation.

'The Hart family is full of selfish bastards. No way in hell am I going be like Olivia, clinging them they're skind of treasure, afraid someone might take them away,' she thought. Sebastian sat down on the edge of Stephanie's bed. He reached over and took the fruit platter away. "Stop eating like that. It's bad for your stomach." Stephanie pouted. "You're seriously micromanagingnow?" Sebastian raised a brow. "Huh?" 3/4 Chapter 153 Stephanie sighed. "Fine, I got it." He nags more than Mom does,' she grumbled inwardly.

Sebastian asked, "Who were you on the phone with just now?" "Olivia. She made a bet with me, saying if she couldn't move into Whispering Bay, she'd pay300 thousand dollars, Stephanie said.

Sebastian arched a brow. "Do you even need 300 thousand dollars?" "I don't. But I won, so I'm collecting," Stephanie replied.

Whether she needed the money or not was beside the point. What mattered was making Olivia suffer.

Olivia had been unbearably arrogant before, so Stephanie had to knock her down a few pegs.

Sebastian chuckled. "She doesn't have 300 thousand dollars to give you right now" Stephanie blinked. "Huh? How do you know?" "The guy who hit you with his car? He's been demanding money from her constantly. Just today, he asked for 200 thousand dollars," Sebastian said.

Stephanie's lips twitched at the news. "And how exactly do you know that?" She was beginning to suspect that he had someone keeping tabs on Olivia.

At that moment, Stephanie was absolutely sure that Sebastian was seriously furious about her car accident.

But something about that murderer asking Olivia for money felt off.

-Stephanie leaned in closer, studying Sebastian. "Sebastian, are you hiding something from me?" 4/4 ☐ A Comment mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
