Chapter 258

Stella felt a bit restless.

She sat down obediently, smiling awkwardly.

“How are you now? Feeling any better? I apologize for not coming to see you all this while.

I’ve just been occupied with work.

”

“It’s fine.

I get it.

” Lucia’s eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled.

“ALL my problems fade away whenever I see my beautiful granddaughter-in-law.

”

Stella’s expression faltered.

She couldn’t continue lying to the poor old woman.

“I need to tell you something important,” Stella began, gathering every ounce of courage she had in her.

“I know what you are going to say.

” Lucia tilted her head.

“You want to talk about Maverick, don’t you?”

Stella was stunned.

Did Maverick already tell his family about the divorce?

Did Lucia ask her to come over just to talk about the divorce?

Stella nodded awkwardly.

“Yes.

The truth is, Maverick and I are—”

She was interrupted by Lucia.

“My grandson is so dull.

He doesn’t know how to communicate his feelings well.

He must have wronged you, didn’t he?”

Stella quickly shook her head.

“No…”

“Come on.

You don’t have to cover for him.

I’m his grandmother, so I know he’s a bad guy.

So self-centered and proud.

Sometimes I think I’m a failure.

” More wrinkles appeared on Lucia’s face as she complained bitterly.

“Please don’t say that,” Stella begged as she walked over to comfort the old woman.

However, Lucia patted her hand and said sadly, “Stella, do you know why I landed in the hospital this time?”

Confused, Stella shook her head.

“It’s all because of that brat!” Lucia snorted.

“A few days ago, word got to me that Maverick was fooling around with another woman and thinking of divorcing you.

I was so depressed and mad that I fainted.

”

Her tone softened as she added, “I could have died that day.

Luckily for me, I was sent to the hospital before it was too late.

The doctor has instructed that I take a good rest.

And as long as I don’t receive bad news again, I’ll be able to make a full recovery.
