James chimed in, voice dripping with disdain, “Stewart, as a man, I honestly have nothing but contempt for you."

Unfazed, Stewart barely spared them a glance, turning his attention to the front desk clerk. "Could you tell them about your family suite options, please?"

Stella and James fell silent, momentarily at a loss for words.
