Semua Bab Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Bab 1491 - Bab 1500

Lucas said, "Dad, I've talked a lot. Can I come in for a glass of water?"Mitch was a soft-hearted person, and Lucas had just given him a big help, so he had no reason to reject him. "Come in."Mitch went into the house before Lucas. He wanted to brew a pot of good tea to welcome his former son-in-law. The best tea he had at home was jasmine tea. He was not sure if Lucas would like it. "We only have jasmine tea at home. Do you want some?"Lucas did not like tea like this which had a strong fragrance. But he could not be picky as he was in his ex-father-in-law's home. "I'm fine with anything."Mitch immediately boiled some water and brewed a pot of tea before pouring a cup of it for Lucas. "Thank you for speaking up for Stella just now."Lucas responded, "Stella is my wife. Defending her is the least I can do."Mitch replied, "You two are divorced. She's no longer your wife. You do know that Stella least wants to see you now. So, after you finish drinking your tea, you should leav

Stella's legs had not fully recovered. She walked quickly, and her legs were so painful that she almost fell. She grabbed onto a stone table nearby for support.Lucas swiftly ran to her side and reached out to support her. "Stella, when have you become so stubborn?"He was a little angry because she had almost fallen just now. 'She's well aware of her legs' injury but still acted so willfully. It was like she was asking for trouble.'Stella shook off his hand. "Mr. White, please don't touch me!"The person in charge and the others heard Lucas and Stella arguing. They stopped walking toward them as they knew it might not be appropriate to approach them now.The person in charge immediately waved his hand to signal everyone to step back. He knew they should not listen to Lucas and Stella's conversation.Lucas was angry. Without saying a word, he lifted Stella around the waist and carried her back to her room on the second floor. "Lie down on the bed to rest now. I'll call for a doc

Lucas continued thinking, 'How can Ronan address Stella like that?'He, extremely displeased, maintained a smile. "Mr. McKinney, didn't your parents teach you how to address someone else's wife?"Ronan smiled as he said, "Mr. White, you two are already divorced. You're no longer married, so she's no longer your wife. Calling her your wife in front of me, her boyfriend, isn't it appropriate?"Lucas responded, "She's mine."Ronan countered, "She's yours? She's an individual, not an object. She belongs only to herself."Lucas insisted, "She's my wife."Ronan questioned, "She's your wife? Is your divorce decree fake?"The conversation between the two was very tense; if it escalated into a physical confrontation, it would be bad.Stella cleared her throat.Ronan immediately looked at her, who had been ignored by them. "Stella, why is he bothering you again?"Stella pursed her bleeding, busted lips caused by Lucas. "Could you please ask him to leave? If he doesn't, we'll call the p

Ronan said, "But there are no 'ifs' in life."Stella responded, "Exactly. From the moment I met Lucas, my life may have been destined to be this way.""What are your plans for the future? Will you go back to acting?"Stella shook her head. "I'm not sure."Ronan said, "That jerk, Lucas, followed us."Stella asked, "You're a man, can you tell me what he's thinking? Why, after our divorce, is he still clinging to me?"Ronan responded, "Maybe he truly likes you."Stella did not believe that Lucas truly loved her. "Tell me the truth."Ronan replied, "I really can't think of any other reason that'd make a man cling to you to this extent."Stella did not respond. 'If it's love, it should be like how Nathan treats Abigail. Lucas said I wasn't worthy of having his child, how could he truly love me?'Ronan added, "It might also be an obsession. The more you reject him, the more he wants to have you. It's like when you fancy a certain product; if you don't get it, you'll keep thinking a

Stella said, "The water of this river comes from the melted snow of the snowy mountains. The water quality is good, and the fish in the river are wild and healthy. The fish have a mild fishy taste, and the meat is delicious. My dad said that selling them can fetch nearly a hundred dollars per pound. If you don't eat it tonight, you'll definitely regret it in the future."Ronan was born into a wealthy family and had tasted all kinds of delicacies. However, he still went along with Stella. "I'm almost drooling listening to you. I'll stay for dinner then, to anger Lucas."Speaking of Lucas, Stella glanced to the left from the corner of her eye and saw Lucas standing still like a statue.She could not understand how Lucas could endure her treating him so indifferently.She thought, 'The Lucas that I knew back then wasn't so humble. Whatever, I'm just going to ignore him.'"Ronan, can you help me up?" Stella asked.Ronan immediately reached out and helped her stand up. "Do you want to
