Remington fixed his icy gaze on her, voice laced with a chilling edge, "Are you suggesting someone framed you? You knew Liz was planning to leave and you told me it wasn't you. Then who else could it be?" Stella's voice broke as she choked up, "I didn't... Do you really see me as such a vile person in your heart? I genuinely don't know how things turned out this way!

Maybe someone overheard my conversation with Liz and decided to pin the blame on me. Maybe Liz had told someone else about her plans to leave."

"But the person who chased after Liz abroad was your cousin, Ralap!" Remington said coldly.

Stella's lips trembled, a look of disbelief spreading across her face as if struck by terror, her grip on her suitcase loosening until it dropped to the ground with a loud thud.

"It can't be! How could it..."

Lizetta, gently rubbing her belly, thought how if it weren't for Remington's timely arrival, Daisy would have certainly been in danger. She felt a surge of anger towards Stella, wishing she could slap some sense into her.

"Stella, do you really think a few tears can wash away the situation that has unfolded?"

Yet, Stella, with tears welling up in her eyes, turned to Lizetta, "Liz, I know my actions spoiled your wedding, and you hold resentment towards me. But you can't wrong me like this; it's like sentencing me to death!"

Just then, a weary voice broke the tension.

"Remington, stop badgering Stella, she knows nothing! If you have questions, direct them at me."
