When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1875

Chapter 1875 Putting An End To Her Peaceful Life
News of Cassandra's downfall spread like wildfire—and even reached Stella, who had been holed up at home.

Stella's life had become a miserable mess. She was constantly dodging debt collectors and living in quiet panic, tormented by the fear that Cecilia and Nathaniel might come knocking on her door at any moment.

What she didn't know was that this was exactly what Cecilia intended—for her to live each day in dread.

Once Cassandra's case was wrapped up, Cecilia turned her attention to the next name on her list. She sought out Sven to ask how Stella had been faring lately.

Sven reported that Stella had secluded herself in a rented apartment, barely stepping outside except to pick up deliveries or takeout.

“Seems like she's still living comfortably,” Cecilia remarked flatly.

After everything Stella had done—and how close she'd come to dragging Vivian down with her—Cecilia had no intention of letting her off easy.

“It's time her so-called peace came to an end,” she said coldly.

Sven understood at once. Without a word, he set the wheels in motion.

That day, like usual, Stella stepped out to collect a parcel—only to find herself suddenly surrounded by a group of men.

“Where are you off to, superstar Ms. Ross?” the man in front sneered.

Stella's eyes widened in panic. “I... I'm not going anywhere...”

“Why haven't you repaid the money yet?” the man demanded, grabbing her arm. “If it weren't for you, our boss wouldn't have been stuck in a losing deal, right?”

“I don't have any money left. Please... I'm begging you,” Stella pleaded, her voice trembling.

“If you're broke, then you should be working to pay it off—not hiding out here.” The men closed in around her.

Stella tried to run, but there was nowhere to go. Cornered and desperate, she had no choice but to agree to work off her debt.

But she was already blacklisted—there was no way for her to earn money through legitimate means.

With no other option, Stella returned to the Royale Club.
