Matthew narrowed his eyes, contemplating the situation. The possibility of a woman shooting calmly and precisely in self-defense against a strong man cast doubts in his mind.
Sensing Matthew’s silence, Fernando sought guidance. “Mr. Clark, what should be our next move?”
Regaining focus, Matthew spoke in a hushed tone. “Given the circumstances, we’ll have to navigate through this unpredictably.
Elizabeth has garnered public support. Clarifying the situation won’t be effective, but there’s someone who could assist us. Rose.”
Recognizing the gravity of the situation, Fernando assured, “I’ll find Rose as soon as possible.”
The following morning, Stella, waking up, noticed Matthew’s absence.
Descending the stairs, she switched on the TV. The news immediately presented the interview with Elizabeth from the previous night at the police station.
The reporter shared, “Elizabeth claims Leo’s intrusion resulted from the conflict between him and Stella, implicating her in the process.”

Stella pressed her lips together tightly and remained silent.
“Let’s have something to eat first.” Matthew attempted to divert her attention. “I need to head to the office later. You stay at home, alright?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be back in no time.” Stella planted a ki*s on her forehead to offer comfort and led her to the dining room.
