Jonathan spoke coldly. "You want me to get rid of Stella?"
Harland cast a sideways glance at him. "Jonathan, I think you've misunderstood something. I didn't say anything of the sort. Stella is your biological sister and a major shareholder of The Williams Group. If we eliminate her, never mind the shareholders of The Williams Group—her allies alone would tear us apart alive. With her current status and influence, Stella is no longer someone we can just erase on a whim."
He wasn't wrong.
Stella was far more than just a major shareholder in the Williams family now.
Her fellow disciple was Antoney Watson, her ex-husband was Haynes O'Brien, her friend was Neville Connolly, and her ally was Miss Hayser.
Even Laurel Quinn of the Quinn family maintained a close relationship with her.
Not to mention Joshua and Leonard.
If Stella were merely kidnapped and lost her shares, people might not dig too deep.
But if she died, the combined fury of all these powerful families was not something they could withstand.
Harland's meticulous planning this time had only been to kidnap Stella—not to execute her outright, the way he would have done with Leonard.
Anyone aiming for Stella had to severely calculate their own weight class first.
Jonathan frowned. "Then what are you suggesting?"

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
Can’t wait to see what joshua will do...
Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
