The last comment was dripping with sarcasm, the thickest yet.

Jaxon's face turned a furious shade of green on the spot. If he could, he would've shut it down once and for all, leaving her no chance of strutting around like now.

Stella barely lifted her eyelids to glance at him, "Sorry, not anymore."
