“Thank you,” she managed to say, despite the discomfort.
Bennett, in his rush to free her, accidentally tugged at her hair again.
“Ouch...” she murmured softly.
Bennett's brow furrowed as he muttered, “I'm sorry...”
Because her hair was tangled in his brooch, Stella ended up very close to Bennett, almost as if she were resting
against his chest.
Just then, Joann arrived on the scene and caught sight of them in that compromising position.
“What... What are you doing?” Joann exclaimed, her voice piercing the air.
Seeing Stella so close to Bennett, Joann jumped to conclusions, her anger boiling over with jealousy, imagining
tearing Stella apart in her fury.

Bennett had just finished untying Stella’s hair from his brooch when she took a step back, creating a small space
between them.
As he turned around, his gaze fell upon Joann, who was rushing toward him with an urgency.
With one hand casually tucked into his pocket, Bennett's voice held a note of impatience as he confronted her.
“Why are you here?”
Stella, standing a little to the side, felt a twinge of annoyance.
It seemed that every tshe was with Bennett, Joann would appear as if on cue.
She even harbored suspicions that Joann might have placed a tracker on him.
Disinclined to deal with Joann’s crazy antics, Stella watched as Bennett averted his gaze from the approaching
figure.
Just then, noticing Matthew's car pulling up, Bennett quickly said to Stella, “Mr.
Clark is here.
Let’s catch up another time.
Stella nodded and was about to leave.
However, Joann blocked her path, asserting, “You can’t leave until you clarify things!”
Stella's brow furrowed in displeasure.
“Miss Crawford, who are you to demand explanations from me?”
“You...” Joann’s face darkened.
Stella was not in the mood to argue or entertain her grievances.
She responded icily, “If my memory servesright, Mr.
Lowell has already broken off your engagement.

You two have no ties anymore.
Miss Crawford, you have no right to meddle in his affairs.
Not only have you failed to understand why he ended things, but you've also been hounding him relentlessly.
Such unreasonable behavior will only deepen his disdain for you.
“You bitch! What did you just say?” Joann’s voice cracked with fury.
Overcwith anger, she raised her hand to slap Stella, but Bennett was quick to intervene.
“Enough!” Bennett's shout echoed sharply.
He stared at Joann with rising irritation.
“Can you stop this madness?”
It was a rare sight for Joann to witness Bennett truly angry.
His sudden fury sent a shiver down her spine, leaving her trembling.
