Kristian stepped indoors and sneakily glanced at Bella.

“Who else in Seamarsh carries the srepute? However, during my stay, | overheard sdetails about the

Clarks.

“What's the matter?”

Noticing Bella's interest, Kristian proceeded, “There's a tale | heard, a lady visited Matthew's residence, posing

as a relative.

She might have been an opportunist, aiming to attach herself to Matthew.

Tragically, she met her demise at the hands of Matthew and his associates.

“What?” Bella exclaimed, taken aback by his revelation.

Kristian feigned fear and added, “The scene was terrifying.

Several men pursued and confronted her, leading to her demise on the street.

It's truly dreadful.

Bella’s countenance darkened as she clutched her chest and inquired, “Is this account accurate?”

Kristian nodded affirmatively.

“I refrain from spreading unfounded rumors about the Clark family.

Bella remained silent, her expression grave.

Kristian advised with concern, “I suggest avoiding Seamarsh in the future and maintaining a distance from the

Clarks.

Recall that Elizabeth previously upset Stella.

If Matthew retains any animosity, it could lead to complications.

As soon as he finished speaking, a female voice sounded nearby.

“Don’t speak nonsense.

Elizabeth descended the stairs and approached them.

She fixed Kristian with a disapproving gaze.

“Matthew and Stella are decent individuals.

You shouldn't defthem based solely on rumors.

Kristian feigned concern and remarked, “Elizabeth, haven't you been cautioned before? | believe you're being

overly lenient in their defense.

Elizabeth gauged Bella's expression and sensed she had effectively persuaded her mother.

She felt content with the outcome.

She gave a discreet wink to Kristian, signaling for him to cease.

She didn’t want Bella to be suspicious.

Kristian comprehended and promptly halted.

Elizabeth grasped Bella's arm and comforted her.

“Mom, don’t heed his words.

Subsequently, Kristian changed the topic.

From his suitcase, he produced snacks and offered them to Bella, saying, “These are from Seamarsh.

Try them.

Bella glanced at them but appeared preoccupied.

She accepted the snacks and forced a smile, saying, “I'll enjoy them later while working in my room.

Observing Bella ascend the stairs and vanish from his view, Kristian hastened to Elizabeth and inquired with a

flattering smile, “What is your opinion? Did | perform well just now?”

Elizabeth snorted contemptuously and remarked, “You're audacious to even mention that.

You've complicated matters with that woman.

Focus on taking care of my mom now.

I'll be stepping out for a bit.
