Elizabeth placed the three cups of coffee on the table.
As she positioned the final cup before Stella, she purposefully poured its contents.
Stella attempted to evade it, yet her efforts proved futile as the black Liquid splattered onto her garments.
Elizabeth let out a piercing scream, feigning panic as she exclaimed, “Forgive me.
Why do | display such recklessness?”
Seizing the moment, she hastily proffered a tissue under the guise of assistance, all the while covertly eyeing
Stella's bag, intending to swap the hair inside.
Stella grimaced, attempting to evade Elizabeth's aid.
“No need, | can manage.

exchanged the hair inside with her prepared ones.
With a relieved exhale, she discarded the tissue onto the table.
A smirk played on her Lips.
After stelapsed, Stella's attire was almost dried, although the coffee stains remained.
Bella resumed her seat, knitting her brows as she reproached Elizabeth, “How could you mishandle something as
simple as fetching a cup of coffee?”
“Yes, yes, it's all my fault,” Elizabeth replied nonchalantly.
The hair exchange had been executed, and she no longer felt inclined to feign politeness.
“Mom, considering your health, lingering in the chill isn’t advisable.
Let's return.
Following her statement, she leveled a frigid gaze at Stella before departing with Bella.
Observing the stains on Stella’s attire with concern, Bella inquired, “Stella, is it okay for you to depart in this
state? Would you Liketo procure new attire for you from the nearby shopping mall?”
Focused on rushing back for a paternity test, Stella remained oblivious to Elizabeth’s shifting demeanor.
Yet, she found solace in Bella's care.
“It’s inconsequential.
