As soon as those words were spoken, the entire dining room went silent.
Ella kept her head down, feeling the intense pressure from the aura Lorenzo was exuding. She didn’t dare to look
at his expression, but she had to ask. Just thinking about it all day made her uneasy.
The issue wasn't just about the missing clothes; it was also about whether anything else had happened. She
needed to clear things up or she’d be restless.
Tpassed by. The air in the dining room stayed eerily silent.
Without a response from Lorenzo, Ella felt a surge of panic and nervously lifted her head to meet his gaze. At a
glance, she quickly looked away. His stare was intimidating. Coupled with the tattoo on his neck, he seemed
quite dangerous.
Ella instinctively swallowed. “Uh, | just want to know who took the clothes off.”

Lorenzo asked, “Is it important?”
“Isn't it important?” She looked up again at Lorenzo, tears glistening in her
eyes.
She felt aggrieved. After all, she had never been treated like this before. The situation was unfamiliar to her.
These dangers seemed so distant in her previous understanding. Being mistreated by a man like this was
something she never imagined. and now it was happening.
“I took them off, so what?”
The air grew still again. Her tears froze.
“Is there a problem?”
“Isn't that a problem?”
“So, what do you want?” His voice was dangerous and sharp, and the intimidating aura he exuded stopped Ella
from saying anything.
Just like back at the airport, he took advantage of her. His hands wandered where they shouldn't, going too far,
and she didn’t dare say anything. Even now, it was the same.
Ella lowered her head pitifully, holding her fork tightly. “Nothing.” She sounded extremely upset.
Lorenzo chuckled softly. “With your figure, even if you gave it to me, | couldn't use it.”
Thoughts of Stephanie and her gossip flashed through her mind. When she looked at Lorenzo again, the shock
completely overshadowed her fear.
Lorenzo set down his wine glass, his gaze on her becoming even sharper. “What's that look for?”
“N-Nothing!” Ella quickly shook her head.
Her mind raced, ‘So what Stefi said was true? If that’s the case, | am relieved, since he couldn't harm me
anyway. But no, even looking is not allowed.
‘Just because he can't, it does not mean he can just take off other people’s clothes. He might not be able to, but
if others found out | was seen by a man, nobody would care whether Lorenzo could or couldn't.’
“In any case, you're not allowed to take off my clothes anymore,” Ella said as turned around.

Lorenzo raised an eyebrow. “Anymore?”
Ella shouted in her heart, What is he talking about? What did | just say?’ Her already confused brain was now
completely tangled. “No more, just not allowed.”
Seeing her looking like a wronged kitten, Lorenzo let out a soft laugh, remaining silent. That laugh, however,
sounded quite meaningful to Ella.
Over on Keris Isle. Richard tormented Bernie so much that Bernie was caught between a rock and a hard place,
and finally tossed Bernie back to his brother, Bert.
Over the years, the troubles faced by the Casalini family led Theodore to believe that Richard's methods were as
ruthless as they could be. But Bernie proved to him that Richard's cruelty actually had no limits.
Just because Bernie had sindecent thoughts about Stephanie, he ended up almost losing his life. And that
was still considering Bert's behalf.
