The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 718

Hannah instinctively shielded Brittany, glaring daggers at Isaac.

If he dared to cause any trouble, she would have been the first one to knock his lights out!

After Isaac left, the engagement party officially began.

However, the person that was sent to find Stella came back empty-handed. His face was pale as he said, "We've got a problem. Ms. Stella is missing."

Stella was gone!

The Thorne family elders were so furious that they almost had a stroke.

"That girl Stella! She actually ran out on her engagement party?!"

"Scoundrel!" The elders of the Palmer family were even more furious, smashing their wine glasses and pointing at Mr. Thorne before storming off!

Joseph had probably anticipated that. With the bride gone, he wasn't upset. Instead, he gave a knowing smile and followed the Palmer family out.

It was a perfectly good engagement party, and Stella decided to run off.

The Thorne family was utterly humiliated.

The guests were dismissed one by one, and Brittany's group left.

Once they were in the car, Hannah was still a little confused, "Bri, did Ms. Stella really run off?"

"It seems like it."

News of Stella's runaway bride act quickly spread throughout Imperial City, sending shock waves through the internet!

When Brittany saw the news, she wasn't surprised.

Stella was one of the hottest actresses in the country. Every move she made was under public scrutiny, and the runaway bride act had become a sensation.

The Palmer family, without regard for their own reputation, exposed that Stella had found a new love.

It wasn't a runaway bride; it was elopement!

The Thorne Group's stocks plummeted, and several collaborations with the Palmer family were cut off, landing Mr. Thorne in the hospital.

News of Stella's elopement was sensational, trending on Twitter for three days, despite the Thorne family spending a fortune trying to suppress it.

With the news making waves, the Palmer family seized the opportunity to take over some of the Thorne Group's stocks, causing instability within their ranks.

Three days later, Stella issued a statement announcing her retirement from acting.

The news of Stella, the once-popular actress retiring from the industry instantly blew up the entertainment industry.
