Stella, while not privy to the details, understood the gravity from Fernando’s tone and offered, “I can travel with Luka later. Don’t worry about me.”
Fernando, visibly concerned by this arrangement, ultimately conceded, recognizing Stella’s autonomy in the matter.
He nodded. “I’ll have the bodyguards take you there.”
“Okay,” Stella responded.
She watched Fernando leave, then turned to Luka. “Thanks for last night.”
Luka offered a smile. “We’re friends. I’ll help you figure out yesterday’s mess with the crew.”
Stella remained silent, convinced Elizabeth was behind yesterday’s incident. Her current mission was to uncover proof.
Accompanied by the bodyguards, they headed towards the film set.
However, as they neared their destination, their car came to an abrupt halt. Suddenly, a mob encircled them, bombarding the windows with cameras and fists, expressions twisted in fury.
Stella recoiled, seeking refuge in the car’s center.
Luka’s composure faltered, recognizing the paparazzi’s ambush. He instructed the driver, “Drive,” but the vehicle was trapped by the throng.
The cacophony from outside penetrated the car, unmitigated by the glass.
“I can’t believe the rumors are true. Stella’s with Luka.”

“The two are disgraceful.”
Stella, grim-faced, reached to clear the air, but Luka caught her hand.
“They won’t Listen now. It’ll only make things worse for you.”
He drew the curtain, shielding them from hostile stares, yet their taunts continued unabated.
“Shameless! Luka aiming for best actor? Think you can bury the truth?”
“I defended Stella against Elizabeth online just days ago. Now, it’s clear she’s no better.”
“Married to Seamarsh’s wealthiest, yet she chases Luka. Is she that desperate?”
The insults escalated, leaving Stella visibly shaken, her hands clasped tightly together.
After a while, Stella’s panic subsided, and she noticed something off.
The crowd’s overblown reactions seemed orchestrated.
