Chapter 981
Stella did not get mad at Molly. Instead, she said slowly, "My parents... sterilize animals, Ms. Moore. I can give you a
20% discount if you ever come over. We don't even need to use anesthesia. Three minutes per animal. Though
some animals may seem wild, they immediately become docile once they are neutered. So much so that they
would stop barking at people."
Everyone was at a loss for words. They knew Stella was insinuating something else. It was obvious that Molly knew
it, too, judging from the ugly expression on her face.
However, before she could speak, Stella said, "Here it comes."
Stella pulled off the handkerchief, and a fluffy gray animal was gnawing on a peanut in Molly's palm. It was a
mouse.

bride. The bride was startled and took a few steps back. Her foot tripped over the chair, and the groom rushed to
pull her up. However, both of them lost their footing and fell to the ground.
This incident surprised the guests, and everyone quickly went up to check on the newlywed.
Duncan reacted fast enough to pull his wife on top of him. He was not hurt, but he was in shock. When he helped
his wife up, her face was pale, and her stomach began to throb
and hurt.
Duncan panicked and carried her in his arms, wanting to head to the hospital. Carter quickly stopped him and said,"
Let Corbin take a look first. It'll be faster than going to the hospital." Corbin immediately went over and checked the
bride's pulse.
Molly was startled by the accident. Then, after realizing what had happened, she pointed at Stella and said, "It's all
her fault. If she hadn't turned those pompoms into a mouse, I wouldn't have tried to get away from it."
Stella ignored her and looked at the bride with concern. She just wanted to play a trick on Molly; she did not expect
her to throw the mouse at the bride. 'If something happens to her, I would be the one to blame/ she thought.
Molly tried her best to push the responsibility on Stella, "She did it on purpose just because my question hurt her
pride. She deliberately turned those pompoms into a mouse to scare me. This woman is vicious, Marshall. Why
would you be with someone like-"
"Shut up!" Marshall cut her off with a stern face.
Soon after, Corbin frowned and said in a low voice, "Get her to the hospital. She's bleeding. We need to check the
fetal heart rate."
Duncan's face turned pale. He carried his wife and rushed out of the building without caring about anything else.
The night was ruined; all of them had an ugly look.

"That's all for today, everyone. It's getting late. Let's all go back. I'll update you all about the situation in the group,"
said Carter. Since the matter had come to this, it was the only way to go.
Stella felt guilty and asked Carter to apologize to the bride and groom on her behalf. Molly, however, refused to
admit her mistake and kept throwing the blame on Stella. "You SHOULD apologize. You knew there was a pregnant
woman here. Why did you pull out a mouse and drag me into this mess?!’
Carter frowned, Ms. Moore, if I remember correctly, Ms. Thompson asked you to hold the pompoms tight several
times. But you were arrogant and didn't listen. You're free to go if my cousin-in-law is fine. But if anything happens
to her, the Moore family will owe us an explanation!"
Molly was furious, "What does this have to do with me? How would I have known that she'd pull out a mouse?!"
"Enough!" Marshall yelled, grabbing her wrist so hard that Molly turned pale from the pain. He put on a straight face
and did not bat an eye at her. "Please send my apologies to Duncan and his wife and tell them we'll visit soon."
Marshall looked at Stella, and without waiting for him to speak, she said, "You go first. I'll take the cab."
Marshall pursed his lips and said, "I'll call you." Stella did not answer. She watched him leave with Molly, who was
upset.
