With Fiona clinging to her leg. Stephanie concealed her disgust, though she didn’t display it on her face, it was nearly overflowing from her eyes.

This idiot! She’s truly a disaster!

Stephanie had repeatedly warned Fiona to avoid direct confrontation with Milly. After all, Milly’s status within the Burnetts had significantly improved, even Stephanie had to avoid crossing her.

However, Fiona had the audacity to stir up chaos in front of everyone. This act essentially dragged Stephanie down with her.

Though she cursed Fiona repeatedly in her heart, Stephanie maintained a look of deep sorrow. She asked, “Fiona, how could you do such a thing? Both you and Milly are my good friends. How could you do this to her?”

Fiona was stunned when Stephanie put it that way. She stammered, “But didn’t you say she…

Stephanie’s gaze turned sharp, and she cut her off, “Enough. Grandpa has instructed Jordan to handle this matter as he sees fit, so I will comply with his wishes. But don’t worry, we’re friends. I’ll help you as much as I can, out of our past friendship.”

Fiona wanted to say something, but Stephanie’s cold, warning gaze silenced her. She swallowed all the words that were on the tips of her tongue.

Yes, things had come to this point. She had no choice but to rely on Stephanie. Angering her further would do no good.

In the end, Fiona held her tongue.
