When Joanna was about to add something, Dempsey said unhappily, “All right. Are you done yet? Could you let us have lunch in peace?”

The dining table finally quieted down.

After lunch, when Dempsey and Joanna were gone, Stella stood up. When she was about to go to her room, Phoebe stopped her.

Phoebe stood in front of her and smiled faintly, “Ms. Radomil, what do you think about the matter I mentioned to you in the morning?”

Stella said, “Miss Steward, thanks a lot for your kindness. Please have fun. I won’t join you.”

“Ms. Radomil, are you worried that Uncle Dempsey isn’t willing to let you go with us? Or are you worried about Annie? I...”

“Miss Steward,” Stella interrupted her in an indifferent tone, “Getting married is a big event. You need to prepare a lot of things. If I go with you, your time would be wasted, Miss Steward.”

Phoebe paused, looking a bit awkward, “I’m sorry, Ms. Radomil. I didn’t mean to raise that topic at the dining table just now. It’s because...”

“Miss Steward, please. You don’t need to apologize to me. I don’t think you’ve done anything to offend me.” Before finishing her words, Stella felt quite helpless. She didn’t know how to explain. She said gently, “I just want to take a rest. I should apologize for letting you down, Miss Steward.”

After finishing her words, she nodded at Phoebe slightly as goodbye and went upstairs.

Back to her room, Stella stood in front of the window for a while. When she saw the black car out of the Conrads’ Mansion, she sat down on the edge of the bed, exhaling.

After a while, she heard faint knocks on her door.

Stella returned to her senses and adjusted her mood. Then she stood up and walked to the door.

When she opened the door, she saw Clarence standing there with both hands in his trousers pockets. With an aloof look, he gazed at the corridor.

Stella was shocked.

She closed the door without any hesitation.

When the door was about to shut, Clarence reached out and stopped it. He looked at her quite unhappily.
