SWNOVELS Chapter 21
Chapter 21
After a brief moment's contemplation, Celena quickly changed her clothes and
stormed out of her room, ignoring Calum’s resistance and instead saying, “I can’t
stop worrying about Liam. Don't try to stop me. Just promise me you'll stay here
and keep an eye on Jovie. I'll be back soon! If Liam comes back, just tell him to
take good care of Jovie, and tell him that I don’t hate him!”
With that, she hailed a taxi and told the driver, “Sir, please bring me to Stone
Mansion in the Uptown Area!”
now...
Celena knew just how much power the Walkers held over the entire -Drunham
City. Seven years ago she had already witnessed just how
malicious the Walkers were capable of being, and now that seven years had
passed and the Walkers were even more powerful than ever, Celena knew she
had no choice but to seek refuge from the
Stones.
Although the Stones were technically a smaller family than the Walkers, and she
was banished from the family seven years ago, Celena had to give it a try despite
the minuscule odds that the Stones would help her.
However, not long after Celena left, Liam arrived home. He stormed into the
house and shouted, “Celena, I'm home!”
He wanted to see Celena again, and more than anything, he wanted to hold her
in his arms again!
wever, he was disappointed to see only Calum waiting for him in
iving room. He scowled and asked, “Where's Celena?”
?Mrs. Cole has, left,” Calum stammered.
eft? Where did she go? Did you allow her to leave by herself? Why

didn’t any of you follow her?” Liam was displeased at this.
Calum quickly explained, “Sir, she didn’t want us to follow, but I've secretly sent
some of our men to follow her without her knowing, so please don’t worry. She
must've gone to the Stones to seek for help because she thought you were taken
hostage by the Walkers!"
“The Stones?” Liam could not help sighing at this. How naive was Celena to think
the Stones would be willing to help her? If the Stones were willing to help, they
would not have banished her seven years ago knowing she was pregnant!
Besides, she was still injured, so how could she venture out all by herself?
Liam was worried that the Stones would try to hurt Celena again, so he turned to
Calum and instructed, “Bring me to the Stones right now!”
He would never forgive himself if anything happened to either Celena
or Jovie!
Meanwhile, Celena stood outside the gates of Stone Mansion, staring at the
intricate wrought-iron gate and its tall, lumbering walls. There were two lion
statues on either side of the gate, symbolizing the Stone family’s inmense wealth
and power.
Celena stared wistfully at the familiar door and finally mustered the courage to
walk toward it. She barely took a few steps when the guards stopped her. “Who
are you? What brings you here?”
“I-" Celena did not know how to respond to this.

All of a sudden, a shrill female voice
rang out, “Look who it is! isn't this my
good old sister who got kicked out
because she conceived a child out of
wedlock? What's wrong? He didn't
treat you well and you decided to
come crawling back?” The content is

It was Celena’s sister, Cheryl, who at this moment was sneering at

“Don't you remember? You've been banished!”

“Cheryl, I'm just here to see Grandpa,”
Celena felt her legs go weak, and
even her mind was beginning to grow
foggy. The wound in her right
shoulder was twinging, and she
gripped onto both her thighs so
tightly to stay awake that her nails
dug into her flesh. The content is on

Cheryl, however, was amused by the
sight of Celena in such a state. She
let go of the man next to her and
strode toward Celena, giving her a
scrutinizing look. “Well well well,
Celena, I didn't think you'd have the
face to show up here again. Our
family wouldn't have become the
laughingstock of the entire city if you
did not insist on giving birth to that
little scum! You want to see
Grandpa? Sure! Just get on your
knees and beg me! I'll allow you to
come in if you satisfy me!” The
