Stella had been about to head upstairs to rest when she noticed Rianne had left her phone behind.

She was on her way out to return it when she saw the scene in the entryway.

In an instant, everyone present was frozen in shock.

The corner of Stella’s mouth twitched as she took in the sight, Rianne on the floor in front of Eddie, clutching his

waist with both arms.

Her mind immediately flashed to that morning, when Eddie had clung to her legs...

She thought back to that moment outside Verdant Villa, when Tessa had slipped and ended up clutching Victor's

belt for dear life.

Those two...

It was no wonder they were both her closest friends.

She'd always believed that two completely opposite personalities could never truly get along, yet here was living

proof to the contrary.

Rianne usually carried herself with such composure, but right now-

Eddie’s expression grew darker by the second as he stared down at her clinging to his waist. The corner of his

mouth twitched. “What are you doing?”

His brows lifted. “Trying to seduce me?”

Rianne’s face turned black after his words.

“I wasn't, | just-"

But Eddie had dropped his usual careless smirk; his face was darkening fast.

Seeing that, Stella rushed forward and grabbed Rianne’s arms, still locked around Eddie’s waist.

“Rianne, let go. Quickly.”

God... her dearest friend, pulling a stunt just like Tessa.

Rianne finally snapped back to her senses.

Her hands flew off Eddie’s waist as if burned.

“Eddie, you're here to see my husband, right? He’s in the study. You should go,” Stella said quickly.

Eddie straightened, smoothing his clothes with unhurried precision.

When his eyes lifted back to Stella, the sharp edge there softened; the roguish air returned in its place.

He smirked. “Well, well, you're calling him your husband already. Stella, you're surprisingly obedient.”

Lines of exasperation appeared across Stella's forehead. “Just go already.”

There he went again-always had to run his mouth.

Eddie chuckled. When his gaze slid back to Rianne, though, it carried something else; something heavy with

meaning.

In the depths of his mind, an old photograph flashed-eyes that were a perfect mirror of Rianne’s now.

The way he looked at her, penetrating, almost predatory, made Rianne instinctively edge behind Stella for cover.

Eddie said nothing more; he simply turned and left.

Even after leaving the Dawson residence, Rianne’s heart still pounded wildly.

She trailed after Stella like a chastened bride, quiet and uneasy, all the way until they reached the car.

Just before getting in, she caught Stella’s hand.

But before she could speak, Stella cut her off. “I know-you didn’t mean it.”

Though that scene just now... had been pretty heated to watch.

“You know what | was going to say?” Rianne asked.

“Tessa said the exact sthing last time.”

“Tessa grabbed his waist too?”

What kind of cursed luck do | have? On my way in, | saw Eddie stark naked; on my way out, | end up like this...

At that moment, Rianne felt completely undone.

“Not him. Victor,” Stella said. “And Tessa was even wilder than you-she nearly ripped his pants off that day.”

In broad daylight, no less; it had been scandalous just to witness.

Hearing about that, Rianne’s face stiffened even more.

“I swear | didn’t do it on purpose,” she muttered.

“I believe you.”

Stella nodded with full seriousness.

Rianne sniffled, studying her. “You told Tessa the sthing, didn’t you?”

“1 did,” Stella said without hesitation. “To both you and Tessa, | believe you.”

Meanwhile, back in Noctarth, Dan had called Marie that morning. She had told him Tessa’s affairs were no longer

her responsibility.

When he called Derrick, Derrick said the sthing.

Tessa was no longer their concern. And yet, what had they been doing all day?

By the tDan finished his fifth call, his face was black as thunder.

Furious, he dialed Marie again-only for her not to answer.

Left with no choice, he called Derrick instead.
