Chapter 440
Chris's face turned a little pale. Despite gearing up mentally before meeting Stephanie, her demeanor still
disturbed him.
Stephanie said, ‘Can you move the car, or should | just drive through it?” The phrase “drive through” cout
as casually as if she were talking about the weather.
Chris couldn't maintain his expression anymore. Everything he planned to say was completely forgotten due to
Stephanie’s demeanor. He could only remember one thing.
He tightened his grip. “Steven Chapin, can you have Richard deal with him?”
Last night, a major event shook the Ashford family-a person appeared who looked just like Chris, accompanied
by a paternity test linked to Fred. The entire Ashford family was thrown into complete turmoil.

Chris struggled to maintain his last ounce of sanity as he looked into Steven's origins. Steven was related to
Richard. Richard was Stephanie's fiancé in Fiorenza. So, from Chris's perspective, this move was nothing short of
Stephanie's revenge on him.
Stephanie paused in confusion when she heard the name. “Steven Chapin? Who's he?”
Chris asked, “You don’t know?” It was clear that Chris wasn’t convinced by Stephanie's reaction.
Stephanie commented, “Are you crazy? Starting this again?” Whenever Olivia was involved, Chris always
adopted this tone with her. Stephanie wasn’t going to hold back and retorted immediately.
Chris said, “He cto the Ashford residence with a paternity test that matched my father. Stephanie, | know
you hate me, but you shouldn't...” Chris paused, the pain in his eyes growing stronger as he looked at Stephanie.
“You shouldn’t have taken revenge onlike this.”
She turned the whole Ashford family upside down. This was her harshest revenge. She hate Chris. He thought it
was because of the postponed wedding.
Stephanie sneered, “You think I hate you?*
“Isn't it?”
“I think you're out of your mind. Hate? Don’t flatter yourself. Love and hate, those are things only Olivia might
feel for you. Who else would even care about you?” Stephanie said dismissively. Hate was something that
existed only if there was love, and she felt nothing for Chris.
“You-"
Stephanie cut him off. “Hate you? Get back at you? Do | really have that much free time? If | wanted to get back
at you, would | need to do it myself?”
Just like the damage the Hart and the Ashford families has taken in business lately, they weren't something
Stephanie did on
her own.
Chris froze. He knew she hadn't done anything. Last night, it was Richard who sent Steven over, and he
arrogantly left them with a “You're welcome!”
Chris laughed, filled with sarcasm and mockery, “Stephanie, | really underestimated you before. Who knew you
were capable of such things. Not only did you win the affection of the brother who raised you, but you even
managed to make your impossible fiancé go to such lengths.”

Stephanie rolled her eyes at him. But when it cto Richard, Stephanie couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy
inside.
She thought, ‘So, it was Richard who messed with the Ashford family? Why would he do that? On the surface, he
didn’t really have any big grudges with them. Whatever, Chris is just insane.”

Chris continued, “I used to think that without me, you wouldn't even be able to live.” He always thought that in
Stephanie's world, there was only him.
He was her support, and even when she called off the engagement, he thought she was just being moody. But
looking at it now, it really was a joke.
