Stephanie felt her mouth twitch. She glanced at Macro, then at Sebastian, her mind spinning with confusion.

What did Lorenzo mean? Is it what I think it is? No, that’s too fast! Is Ella on board with this? There’s no way she would have been willing, especially in a situation like this. So what the heck does it all mean?‘ she thought.

Macro took a sharp breath. “Lorenzo, you’re something else. Did Ms. Turner really manage to get your pants-”

“If you say another word, I promise your mouth won’t last till tomorrow.” Lorenzo’s icy threat interrupted before Macro could finish speaking.

Macro shot up instantly.

“So, Lorenzo, what do you mean by that? Was Ella willing?” Stephanic asked anxiously.

But before Lorenzo could respond, Ella’s cries came through. “Stefi, you must save me. I didn’t come here willingly. I almost died. I’m scared-”

Suddenly, the call ended.

Stephanie and Macro looked directly at Sebastian.

“Sebastian, you heard it all, right? Ella didn’t do it voluntarily,” Stephanie said, panicking.

Macro echoed, “Lorenzo is such a jerk. He’s only met Ms. Turner a few times and already treats her like that.”

He thought, “Ella was really bold that time at Shallow Bay. But Stephanie said that Ella didn’t mean to do it and had no bad intentions.”

Stephanie seldom agreed with Macro, but this time, she nodded. “Yeah, you can’t treat Ella like that. Didn’t you hear how she cried on the phone earlier?” Ella’s voice was full of fear, as if Lorenzo had actually done something terrible.

Sebastian rubbed his aching forehead, remaining silent.

“Sebastian,” Stephanie called in a begging tone, shaking his arm urgently. She was worried sick about Ella.

Sebastian replied, “Relax, Lorenzo knows his limits.”

“Then how did he scare Ella like that?” Stephanie retorted. ‘Lorenzo has no limits at all. Ella definitely shouldn’t stay around Lorenzo; she might really get scared.”
