Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Cutting Ties
"What? She hasn’t taken the initiative to reconcile even now?"
Eleanor Gage found it hard to believe.
After all, Vivian Lynn is still pregnant with The Stone Family’s child. How could she possibly remain so composed?
"Really, since that day she pretended to have a car accident, she hasn’t called me, nor has she sent any messages."
Stephen Stone originally enjoyed the nightlife, but mentioning Vivian Lynn suddenly made it feel less appealing.
Although there are many pretty girls in the bar, there aren’t many who are truly prettier than Vivian Lynn.
Moreover, those girls just want to dig into his pockets, nearly emptying six months of his allowance in just one month.
But Vivian Lynn is different; every time they go out, she supports the expenses.
Comparing the two, Stephen Stone feels it’s better to be with Vivian Lynn.
Especially when his mother brought it up, he recalled how Vivian Lynn would always personally cook delicious food for him...
Therefore, he rarely took the initiative to ask his mother to plead for Vivian Lynn.
"Mom, I think the test we’ve put Vivian through is enough. Imagine how tough it is for her now being pregnant."
Eleanor Gage, troubled by the losses of the chain restaurant, had considered asking Vivian Lynn for money.
With Stephen Stone’s words, it gave her a way out.
"Alright, then send her a message, tell her reconciliation is possible, but she must come over immediately to apologize and invest five billion in the restaurant..."
"
Stephen Stone, having received his mother’s ’imperial decree,’ promptly proceeded to carry out the orders.
But when he sent the message exactly as his mother said, he found that it couldn’t be delivered.
"Mom, has Vivian blacklisted me?"
"Then call her! A woman who’s never studied abroad dare put on such airs? Just wait until she enters The Stone Family, see how I deal with her."
Eleanor Gage was dismissive, already planning on having Vivian Lynn bring her footwash every day after marrying in to vent her frustration.
Stephen Stone, following her orders, called Vivian Lynn.
Once again, he discovered that Vivian Lynn had blocked his calls.
An unprecedented sense of unease suddenly swept over his heart.
"This is bad, I think Vivian is serious this time."
They had had disagreements before, but Vivian Lynn had never blocked both his phone number and WeChat ID.
"She’s just taking advantage of carrying The Stone Family’s child to do as she pleases. Go find her at her place now and bring her back! See how I reprimand her!"
She’s about to marry into The Stone Family and still doesn’t know how to behave, treating her husband and mother-in-law like fools, yet still has the audacity to put on airs!
Just wait, soon she’ll definitely teach Vivian Lynn a lesson, making her obedient, with her husband and mother-in-law as her main priority.
But now, Stephen Stone doesn’t quite agree with Eleanor Gage, only feeling that the situation is truly dire.
So, he hurriedly drove to the house where Vivian Lynn previously lived.
Stephen Stone had also lived there for a while and knew the lock code.
So, once there, he immediately entered the code.
But the voice prompt said, "Password incorrect!"
"How could it be wrong?"
Stephen Stone entered the previous code again, but was once more told, "Password incorrect!"
Just as Stephen Stone refused to give up, intending to enter the password a third time, the door opened.
"Vivian? I..."
Stephen Stone wanted to say something, then realized the person opening the door was an unfamiliar old man.
"Who are you, why are you in Vivian’s house so late?"
"Young man, this is my home!" the old man said.
"No, this is my fiancée’s home! Besides, she doesn’t have any relatives. Old man, I warn you, don’t think just because Vivian rarely stays here, you can jump over the wall and live here."
Stephen Stone had never heard of Vivian Lynn having other relatives, assuming the old man was a squatter who had jumped the wall to live there.
Unexpectedly, right after speaking, a young man also walked out from the house.
"Are you talking about the previous owner, Vivian Lynn? She sold the house to our family a month ago. If you don’t believe me, you can check the property proof we’ve already transferred."
With this statement, even if Stephen Stone was foolish, he had to accept that Vivian Lynn had indeed sold the house, cutting ties with the past...
