Now They Want My Forgiveness - Chapter 329: Chapter 329

But Anna never expected that the doctor had secretly recorded those videos without her knowing. She thought, 'Guess that doctor needs to be taken care of, too.'
"Dad, what are you planning to do?" Anna asked, testing the waters.
"Let me make a proper plan for this," Andrew said. Then he turned and walked away.
Anna smirked. She'd wanted Stella dead for ages. If she hadn't pulled some tricks back then, the family would've noticed Stella right away and never paid any attention to her. But Stella was just too lucky and managed to survive until now.
Anna knew what Stella was capable of. If she didn't act soon, Stella would dig up the truth about her grandma and Emily and pin it all on her. Then she'd be done for.
Anna thought, 'Letting Andrew do the dirty work is perfect. No one will ever suspect me. As for that doctor...' She dialed the doctor's number and asked him out to meet.
Stella got a call from the hospital. They told her Max had finally woken up. He still couldn't get out of bed yet, but at least he was conscious and aware now.
As soon as Stella found out they'd taken Max to the hospital, she called over and told them to update her immediately if there was any change in his condition. She really hadn't expected Max to be this resilient—he actually woke up in the end.
When Stella went out to meet a client, she unexpectedly ran into Monroe again. For some reason, she kept running into him more and more these days.
Stella just ignored him completely, chatting away with her client as if he weren't even there. Monroe kept glancing over at her, and even he didn't know why he'd notice Stella all the time.
Monroe thought, 'She's looking more and more beautiful, almost completely recovered now. But if one looks closely, there's still something a bit off about the way she walks.'
That day, out of curiosity, Monroe looked into what Stella had been through these past three years. What he found made his blood run cold. He wondered, 'How could anyone survive something so awful?'
Maybe that was why, seeing Stella again, he found it harder to blame her for the things she'd done before. He even realized that Stella wasn't the kind of person to bully anyone. She just kept getting caught up in these endless battles with Anna.
Monroe thought, 'Come to think of it, Anna and Andrew have been acting suspicious lately, constantly sneaking around together. I don't know what they're plotting.'
Just then, Monroe's phone rang. It was his little sister calling. "Wow, Monroe, you and Anna really know how to keep things spicy—going to a hotel in the daytime?" she teased.
"What are you talking about? I'm meeting with a client right now," Monroe said, sounding confused.
"Seriously? I just saw Anna walk into a hotel. You're not there with her?" his sister asked.
Monroe's eyes narrowed. "Which hotel?"
"The Phoenix Hotel!" his sister replied.
Monroe didn't say a word.
His sister seemed to get the hint. "Hey, Anna's not cheating on you, is she?"
"Don't talk nonsense. She's not like that. Maybe she's just meeting up with a friend," Jordan replied.
"Come on, Monroe, you're totally whipped. I don't trust her one bit." With that, his sister hung up, clearly having better things to do.
Monroe was getting more and more on edge. Something just felt off. He said goodbye to the client and left early, unable to shake the uneasy feeling.
Stella happened to overhear Monroe's phone call just now. It sounded like it had something to do with Anna. So she found an excuse to say goodbye to her client and quietly slipped away to tail Monroe.
Stella watched as Monroe walked into the Phoenix Hotel, a bit taken aback. She wondered, 'Why did he come here at this time?'
Just then, Stella's phone rang. It was Jordan calling.
