Morwenna was feeling exasperated and just about ready to hang up the phone.

Suddenly, someone snatched the phone from her hand.

Instinctively, she turned around, only to find Stuart standing behind her and taking her phone without noticing.

Stuart remained silent, listening to the tirade coming through the phone.

Once the rant on the other end had subsided, Stuart spoke up, his voice cold and detached. "Adelaide, are you testing my limits? I've warned you about messing with Morwenna." There was a sudden silence on the line as if the breathing had stopped.

After a moment, Adelaide gasped for air, her voice less harsh but filled with sadness and resentment. "Stuart, is Morwenna your limit? What about me? After all this time, what do I mean to you?" Stuart's tone was indifferent. "If you play your cards right, your family can continue reaping the benefits as before. But if you choose not to, Adelaide, every favor runs its course."

Once the favors were over, abandonment followed.

That was Stuart, cold and cruel.

Adelaide got the message and hurriedly ended the call.

She clutched the phone so tightly that her wrist wound started bleeding again.

In a frenzy, she blocked Morwenna and Stuart, her blood smearing over the phone screen in a messy, pitiful display.
