Stella hadn't fully recovered when Andrew and Fiona called her over.
Seeing the table full of delicious dishes they had prepared for her, Stella thought they had finally realized their mistakes.
But after she sat down and had only taken a few bites, Fiona suddenly said, "Stella, I need to talk to you about something. You know, we're all really happy that you got into Quentiham University, but honestly, it's all thanks to Anna.
"If Anna hadn't given you her body, you wouldn't have been able to stay up late every night and get such good grades.
"Anna didn't do well on her exams this time, and she's been suffering from illness every day. It pains your dad and me to see her like this.
"So we talked it over, and we've decided you two should switch schools. You'll take on Anna's identity.
"You're a good student, so even if it's just community college, with your hard work, you can get into a university and even go to grad school—it all works out the same in the end.
"But Anna can't do that. For her, this is a rare chance. She doesn't have the luxury of time—her health just won't let her wait. Once you both graduate, you can switch back."
This was something Stella had never imagined her parents would ask of her—not in her wildest dreams.
If they'd said this to her the very first time, maybe she would have believed them. But after all the times they'd made her give in to Anna, in every little thing, she finally saw through their act.
So this time, she refused without a second thought.
Fiona kept coaxing her, trying to change her mind.
Stella had always done whatever her parents told her, but this time, she stood her ground. She said, "No way. I will never agree to this. No matter what you say, I'm saying no."
Seeing how stubborn Stella was, Fiona's face turned cold. She said, "Alright then, Stella. If you're going to be this stubborn, don't blame us for what happens next."
She called out to the servants, "Lock her up. No one is allowed to let her out before she goes to Quentiham University to register—unless I say so."
The servants, already used to following Andrew and Fiona's lead in ignoring Stella, were about to lock her up without a second thought.
It finally hit Stella—if she didn't get out now, she'd never make it to Quentiham University, not in this lifetime. This time, she was determined not to give in. So, in a panic, she rushed out of the house.
She had no idea where she ended up. Crying her eyes out, she called Emily, pouring her heart out and asking, "How could my own parents treat me like this?"
Back then, Emily had taken her side and criticized Fiona and Andrew.
Stella's heart felt warm—she was touched by Emily's kindness. But what she never expected was that, right then, she ended up giving away her location.
Thinking about it now, Stella realized that Emily definitely had a hand in her getting targeted by those kidnappers.
Back to reality, Silas was dragged over to the place where the debt collectors were staying.
The security guards just tossed Silas over, and the debt collectors were momentarily stunned.
"Our boss said since you guys were looking for him, we'd just bring him back to you," one of the guards said.
"Your boss? Do you mean Andrew? Man, that guy's cold," one of the debt collectors muttered.
"Our boss isn't Andrew. Don't worry about who he is. Anyway, we've dropped him off, so we're out," the guard said.
Silas, already tied up, came to his senses as soon as he was dragged out of the car. He frantically reached out to the guards and pleaded, "Don't leave me here. Please, take me with you.
"Let me see Stella—I'm her uncle, after all. She can't just turn her back on me."
But the guards, acting on Stella's orders, completely ignored Silas and walked off without a second glance.
