"You arrived a bit late. Ms. Liora and I chatted for quite a while," I casually added, throwing more fuel to the fire.

Stella's eyes glanced at Liora. Although she maintained a smile, a shadow clouded her eyes.

Moreover, I noticed that Liora seemed off since the arrival of Trinity and Stella. Her attention wasn't on us. Instead, she briefly glanced at Vicky, who had been following her. Soon after, Vicky discreetly left our group.

I added, "How is the matter in Muborough handled? Putting Matthew in prison involves many projects, and it's not wise. There are mixed reactions about it—shappy, snot so much." My words were direct, implying that Liora may have done more harm than good by implicating Matthew. Celine was deeply involved in the Muborough projects, and the current situation was undoubtedly distressing her.

This incident, after all, was instigated by Liora.

Even though I spoke plainly, Liora didn't catch on, showing that her attention was elsewhere.

Stella couldn't ignore the hidden meaning of my words.

With an indifferent glance at Liora, she calmly said, "There should be an explanation." "Yes, indeed. Muborough isn't the only one affected, but if it turns into a hands-off project and the parties involved end up in trouble..." I hinted, "Everyone might have to fend for themselves in the face of a crisis." Of course, Ivanna wouldn't miss this chance, saying slyly, "Certain people are experts at scheming others. You shouldn't worry about trivial matters like this. Just be careful not to get hit by another truck." The three of us looked at Liora.

Surprisingly, it seemed like Liora didn't understand what we were talking about. Her mind appeared to be in disarray.

Stella, sharp as ever, immediately turned to Liora and warned, "Chloe, you really need to be careful. Investigate thoroughly." "Yeah. Remember the scapegoat incident? They say the police re-investigated, starting with that tracksuit." I deliberately mentioned the cruise ship incident, trying to shake them up.

Liora was not paying attention to our topic at all, even now. Her face suddenly paled as she glanced at Stella. Seeing Stella looking at her, she was startled and quickly put on a fawning smile.

"Stella, I've got a lot of things to discuss with you. Let's make an appointment for another day. I won't keep you now. My friends over there are waiting," she said, quickly leaving.

I saw Vicky at the door, but she didn't cin.

We continued our seemingly unrelated conversation while Liora exited our circle, exchanging pleasantries with people on her way to the door.

I casually looked at Ivanna, and she immediately understood what I meant as she also glanced at Liora.

Stella noticed Liora seemed off but concealed it, saying, "How many people have you offended? Why does everyone seem to want to target you? It looks like you need to reflect on yourself." Then she chuckled gleefully. This convincedthat this incident had nothing to do with her. Otherwise, she would not have brought it up voluntarily.

"Yeah, I do self-reflection all the time." I smiled back.

In my mind, I pondered that there was another player involved in the events of the past few days. I had tested both people, and it appeared that this time, it was Liora's move.

I noticed that Liora and Vicky had already walked out of the main door while Trinity was still engaged in En: conversation with others. Ivanna quickly pulledaside, ignoring Stella's presence, and said, "Accompanyto the restroom." I smiled at Stella and said, "Excuse me." Then, with Ivanna leading, we walked toward the door. I knew that Stella was watchingthe entire time. We quickly walked toward the

restroom once we were out of the door. The restroom was quiet, with no sign of anyone. This surprisedabit, and Ivanna looked puzzled, too. She checked each cubicle one by one. "Could there be other restrooms?" I asked Ivanna.

She quickly walked to the opposite corridor. After a short while, shem returned to my side, shaking her head. I pondered momentarily and said, "Let's go back." We must not stir up trouble now, as Trinity appeared to have a well-thought-out plan.
