Henry had dispatched a driver to pick up Allison. Stephanie called Allison and said, “Allison, the driver is on his way to get you”

“What? Aren’t you coming?” Allison asked, surprised.

“Sebastian won’t let me go out, Stephanie replied, thinking to herself how capable she was at driving and wondering why Sebastian was so worried,

Allison responded, “Well, considering the icy and snowy conditions, I wouldn’t feel comfortable either. You wait for me

“Okay,” Stephanie agreed,

It was truly freezing outside. Stephanie glanced at the thick layer of snow that had already accumulated and was about to ask Allison why she had come to see her, but the call had already ended.

Outside, the driver returned to Tyler’s car and said, “The security guards are no longer willing to inform Ms. Giovanni that we’re here to see her.”

Tyler frowned and gave the driver a displeased look. “She didn’t answer the phone?”

He was referring to Stephanie. Currently, none of their calls to Stephanie were getting through.

The only people they could even speak to were the security guards at the entrance of Shallow Bay Area, but the driver shook his head. “The butler has been the one answering the phone the entire time.”

As for Stephanie’s voice, he hadn’t heard it at all. Tyler’s breathing grew heavier. He closed his eyes, his breaths becoming more rapid.

If he couldn’t see Stephanie, he didn’t know what to do. The entire Hart family was relying on her to show some leniency regarding the current situation.

He had come to realize that Stephanie now held the power to resolve the issues plaguing the Hart family with just a single word.

‘Who would have thought that Stephanie, whom we once looked down upon, would possess such influence? After all, she is the princess of the Lucano family,‘ he sighed inwardly.

The Lucano family, a name that struck fear into the hearts of many. In the past, they had believed Stephanie to be powerless, and so they had favored Olivia without restraint.

But now, Tyler felt a sudden sense of irony about their past

actions.

The driver suggested, “Maybe we should just go back?” It was clear that waiting here would not get them an audience with Stephanie.

Obviously, it wouldn’t. “But staying here won’t get us to Ms.
