Chapter 249

Ella lowered her head and quickly followed Stephanie’s advice, speaking in a small voice, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to

No matter what, and regardless of whether Lorenzo had any intention of killing her, apologizing first was always the right move. Once Stefi came back, she would move out of here immediately.

Even if Stefi suggested she move in with the Giovanni family, she would be willing. It was better than staying here alone with

Her mind kept replaying the earlier scene. At this moment, Ella really wished she could dig a hole and bury herself. “Could be any

Lorenzo didn’t take the glass. Instead, he tightened his grip on her chin and asked, “What did you see just now?”
