The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride -
Chapter 279 I Only Favor You
Within two years, Stella remarried. Her new husband, Miles Garcia, was also divorced and had a daughter, which brought some stability to their lives.
After the marriage, Stella realized that Timothy and Ellie were her leverage in her husband's family, so she became much more polite whenever she saw Timothy and Ellie. Sebastian suddenly brought up Stella to Molly, probably because there was some unrest at home again.
On the way, Molly asked Sebastian, "If we have a fight, whose side will you take?"
Sebastian replied, "Everyone knows I only favor you."
When they arrived at the Chase family home, they were greeted by the laughter of Stella, her son, Miles, and her stepdaughter.
Sebastian held Molly's hand. "Let's go in."
As Molly and Sebastian entered, Molly greeted, "Hello, we're back."
Their entrance gave others the impression of a sweet couple returning home after being out.
Stella had always disliked Molly, and after learning that she was adopted by Timothy's family, she mocked and sneered at Molly even more.
This time, in her own home, she wanted to see if Molly would still dare to challenge her.
"If you have a home, why are you coming to mine? We raised you for fifteen years, and now you plan to stay with the Chase family forever?"
Stella didn't look at Molly, her gaze fixed elsewhere.
Molly also ignored Stella and asked her parents, "Dad, Mom, if we have guests, shouldn't we go out to meet them? Why bring them home and leave a sour smell for us to clean up?" "How can you talk like that?"
"It's none of your business."
In her own home, Molly was confident. She knew her parents and brother would protect her, so she wasn't afraid of offending anyone.
Stella pointed at Molly. "How dare you be so arrogant in my house? Get out!"
Molly replied, "This is my house. Get it straight; the homeowner's name is my parents. Who do you think you are? You dare to call this your house? Does this house have anything to do with you? If anyone should leave, it's you." Seeing that Molly wasn't backing down, Sebastian didn't intervene.
Ellie was also displeased and told Molly to leave. "Molly, sit here with me."
Timothy also made room. "Molly, sit between us."
Molly proudly hummed and happily sat between her parents.
Sebastian smiled.
Max and Zoey quickly intervened to stop the argument.
Stella was always infuriated by Molly.
After sitting down, Stella complained to her son about why he didn't help her during the argument.
Molly said, "Why involve a man in our argument?" If she really needed a man, she could call Timothy or Sebastian, and she would still win.
Stella had important matters to attend to this time, so she couldn't leave in anger because of Molly.
Sebastian sat next to Max, picked up some chocolates from the table, and placed them all on Molly's lap.
Molly unwrapped a chocolate candy and fed it to Ellie on her left, then to Timothy on her right. Finally, she ate one herself.
"Sebastian, where's the bathroom?" Abby Garcia, Stella's stepdaughter, shyly asked Sebastian.
Sebastian said to Molly, "Molly, can you show her?"
Molly got up from the sofa and pointed. "The door with the dried flowers hanging above is the bathroom."
Abby went by herself.
When Abby returned after washing her hands, she didn't sit back in her original spot but walked over to sit next to Sebastian. "Sebastian, is your work busy?" Sebastian instinctively looked at Molly, who was glaring at Abby and then looked at him. "Sebastian, I'm thirsty."
Sebastian got up, fetched water for Molly, and handed it to her before sitting on the other side.
Stella said to Sebastian, "Sebastian, Abby asked you a question."
"Yes."
That was Sebastian's answer.
Stella continued, "If you're busy, don't bring unrelated people to the police station. It might interfere with your work."
When Stella said "unrelated people," she deliberately glared at Molly.
Sebastian looked at Molly affectionately. "I can take a break to be with her. When she's around, I feel at ease, and it doesn't interfere with my work." Molly immediately gave Sebastian a big smile. "Sebastian, I love you."
Hearing this, Sebastian's smile widened.
Seeing Molly, Stella was displeased and directly ordered, "Tonight, Abby will sleep in Molly's room. We're staying here tonight." Stella spoke as if it were her own home.
Molly said, "No way!"
She continued, "That's my room. She can only sleep there if I invite her. If I don't, she can't enter my bedroom."
Stella questioned, "Are you suggesting that after traveling all this distance to visit family, we should spend the night sleeping on the streets?"
"You can sleep in the living room, but don't even think about my bedroom."
Stella stood up angrily, pointing at Molly's forehead. "Is that your room? That's my niece's room. Go back to your own home. Why do you occupy our house as if it's yours?"
Molly's anger flared up instantly. She stood up and slapped Stella's hand away, pointing at the door. "Get out! This is my home. Your visit should have ended yesterday. Why are you still here with your family? Do you want me to chase you out?" Timothy stood up and positioned himself between the arguing Stella and Molly. "Alright, stop arguing. Stella, Molly is my child, and this is her home. As her aunt, you shouldn't say that."
"Who wants to be her aunt? She found her parents, so why is she still here? She can't just stay because our family is wealthy."
Molly retorted, "Bringing up the names of my biological brothers would terrify you beyond belief!"
Had Vincent and Patrick of the Olteran family been aware of Molly's bullying situation, they would have rushed to support her without delay.
Ellie couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She got up from the sofa, holding Molly's hand. "Molly, let's ascend the staircase. Let them handle this themselves."
With that, Ellie led Molly back to the master bedroom.
Sebastian put down his phone and said to Stella, "I've booked a hotel room for you. Our house is small and It can't accommodate so many people. Grandpa and Grandma just returned from the hospital and need rest. It's more convenient for your family to stay at the hotel."
Two men rose to their feet beside Stella, one her son and the other Miles. They held her back, reminding her of the important matters they had to attend to and not to offend this family.
After returning to the room, Ellie sat on the bed, fuming. "Molly, your bedroom is for you alone. Don't back down, understand?"
Molly nodded. "Don't worry, Mom. I'll protect my bedroom and won't let anyone else into Sebastian's room either."
