Seeing her desperately trying to explain, Stella laughed, “Okay, dinner will be ready soon. Channing, come help me in the kitchen.”

Channing nodded, “Okay.”

Elaine finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt alive again as she watched the two of them walk towards the kitchen.

At the side, Sherry tried to ease the situation so that Elaine wouldn’t be so awkward. She gestured Winnie and talked about what happened on the Internet these two days.

In the kitchen, Stella passed the potatoes to Channing and asked him to peel it.

As Channing went to get a knife, Stella suddenly asked him, “Did you go find Chassell?”

Channing froze for a moment, and then denied, “I didn’t.”

“Then how did you get the injuries on your face?”

“It has nothing to do with him.”

Stella glanced at the living room and slowly said, “Winnie is also asking me about this. Maybe we would even discuss it during dinner. Are you sure you don’t want to tell me the truth?”

Channing didn’t say anything.

He remained silent for a few seconds. Then, he turned around and started to peel the potatoes, indirectly confirming what Stella speculated was true.

Stella still wanted to ask Channing if he had hit Chassell. However, it was already an obvious fact, seeing the injuries on his face.

She asked, “Where is Chassell right now?”

“In the hospital.”

“Not bad. He can still issue an apology statement from the hospital. This means he’s still alive.”

Channing lowered his head and didn’t speak.

Stella asked again, “How did you find him?”

“I’ve met him before. I called him, and he went to the underground parking lot.”

“He didn’t bring any bodyguards? Didn’t he call the police?”

“Maxwell was there too.”

Stella went silent for a while, “So it was a group fight?”
