For all the fuss the Harts and Hodges made about this engagement, Tyler really had the balls to parade his side
piece and love child out in public?
“You knew, didn’t you?” Ella squinted.
“Yes, | do.”
Stephanie didn’t even blink. “Yeah.”
Ella gasped. “Holy shit-it’s really his kid? Then what's he doing stringing Lilian along?”
The Hodges weren't exactly known for their open-mindedness.
A secret baby? With srandom woman? That was the kind of thing that could nuke an entire engagement.
Stephanie leaned back in her chair. “Long story. The kid’s mom used to work VIP at Velvet.”

Velvet?! That crusty-ass club?‘
Stephanie slid her a napkin, all calm and collected. “Yup. And that’s exactly why the Harts never acknowledged
her, or the kid.
“And Tyler? He just left them hanging?”
Stephanie snorted. “Please. You think a guy like Tyler's capable of giving a damn?”
He was just looking for a good tand ended up with a permanent souvenir.
“The woman didn’t even show up until the kid turned one, cknocking with a DNA test and everything. Too
bad for her, the Harts slammed the door right in her face.”
Ella shook her head, equal parts horrified and impressed. “And you've been sitting on all this?”
Stephanie smirked. “Why waste premium tea on people who don’t deserve it?”
Yep, that was just how Stephanie rolled-not the type to gossip, and definitely not the type to flex.
If she was, Ella would've heard long ago that her stucleared over two million last year.
But with Stephanie, if no one ask, she wasn’t about to volunteer.
Ella stabbed her salad. “You know Lilian’s gonna blow a gasket if she finds out, right? And Jackson?”
The second Ella thought about Jackson, she couldn't help but laugh. Tyler had to be out of his damn mind.
Of all the messy crap he could've gotten into, he really went and chose this?
“That man’s gonna straight-up bury Tyler alive.”
Stephanie’s grin went full devil-mode. “That girl's no amateur.”
“No way she lets this slide,” Ella agreed. “And if she finds out Tyler's about to marry into the Hodges? She's

fireworks you can see from space.”
Stephanie didn’t respond right away, but the spark in her eyes said everything.
“You think she’s about to make a scene?”
“She sat quiet for a whole year before making her move. She knows exactly how to play this game.”
Ella narrowed her eyes. “Okay, hold up. What are you plotting?”
Stephanie's smile was pure trouble. “They've been messing withnon-stop. It's about t| returned the
favor.”
Ella paused for a beat. Olivia was such a queen. “She has three types of cancer and still has the energy to
act up?”
Oh, she got it alright.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Harts had been wreaking havoc in Stephanie’s life nonstop-like hell she was gonna play nice.
They wanna start a circus?
Cool. Let's turn this whole thing into a full-blown shitshow. The more chaos, the better.
Stephanie pulled out her phone, already dialing Elliot. “Dig up everything you can on that woman. We're going
big.”
Sebastian was already making moves behind the scenes, she sure as hell wasn’t gonna sit this round out.
Ella’s mouth twitched, barely holding back a laugh.
Stephanie ended the call, shaking her head with a half-smile. “Can you believe | almost forgot about her? Been
so damn swamped lately.”
If Sebastian hadn't shown up, this whole mess probably would've kicked off already.
She should have thought about this earlier...
