Chapter 487

“Yeah, there won’t be any surprises. My flight’s tonight, so you’ll see me tomorrow morning,” Stephanie replied. She had originally wanted to say, “If nothing unexpected happens,” but sensed something was amiss. Ella had become particularly sensitive to that phrase, fearing an accident. Stephanie thought, I hope that when I return to Fiorenza this time, there won’t be any surprises. Otherwise, Ella’s heart might not handle it.

“I’ll wait for you, but seriously, no surprises, okay?” Ella said with a sniffle.

Stephanie said, “Alright, no more surprises.” But honestly, she couldn’t promise that. If anything unexpected happened with Sebastian, she’d be affected. She lacked the courage to tell Ella this, however, thinking, If Sebastian faced another issue today, should I consider going back myself?

Hearing Stephanie say there wouldn’t be any more surprises, Ella felt a bit better. “Alright, then I’ll wait for you. Be sure to come back early tomorrow.”

Stephanie replied, “Alright.”

“Come straight over once you get off the plane. I can’t stand being with Lorenzo anymore. I never want to see him again,” Ella said.

Stephanie thought, What kind of trouble has happened now? Look how startled Ella seems. She asked, “What did you do this time?”

Stephanie mused, “The first time was Lorenzo’s belt buckle, then it was taking his towel. And now? What has happened again? From Ella’s tone, I can tell something happened. Could it be last night’s cooling therapy?”

Before Ella could speak, Stephanie jumped in and said, “When you were cooling down Lorenzo last night, could it be that…” She paused.

Stephanie coughed twice and said, “You didn’t strip him completely and get caught, did you?” She thought, Otherwise, what would have scared Ella so much?

Ella was speechless. As soon as Stephanie said that, the phone went silent. Even Ella’s sobbing stopped.

Stephanie, hearing the silence, gasped, “Could it be true?” She thought, It was to cool him down, right? Lorenzo might not understand, but how could Ella not?

“Did you really…?” Stephanie thought, If Ella did strip Lorenzo completely… Well, Lorenzo would be freaked out. He could even get mad.

Images of Lorenzo grabbing her wrist flashed through Ella’s mind. She sniffled and said, “Stop making things up. I’m not that clueless.”

Stephanie asked, “Hmm?”

Ella replied, “I didn’t finish taking off his clothes. I was too scared to look while wiping. I accidentally touched somewhere I shouldn’t touch. Don’t ask anymore.”

Anyway, when Ella thought about last night, it was super awkward. Lorenzo refused to let Stephanie send her staff over, regardless of what was said, and Lorenzo’s people wouldn’t answer the phone. Ella thought, What could I do in that situation? I just closed my eyes and tried to help reduce his fever.

Chapter 487

On the other end of the line, Stephanie’s mouth twitched as she asked, “Touched somewhere you shouldn’t have? Does Lorenzo know about it?”

Ella thought, Why is Stephanie so curious? Well, I can tell Stephanie about it, anyway! “He even grabbed my wrist then. Do you think he knows?”

Stephanie was speechless. It was her turn to be stunned. There was no need to explain; everyone knew how awkward it must have been. “So, was Lorenzo upset?”

“He wasn’t upset about that,” Ella replied.

Stephanie asked, “Not upset about that? Then why did he try to scare you?” Even Stephanie, who usually wasn’t interested in gossip, suddenly became curious.

“Isn’t Lorenzo unable to have an erection? If a man struggles there, he’s insecure. You confronted him, and he’s not mad?” Stephanie asked.

When Sebastian pushed the door open, he overheard Stephanie’s words. He thought, First, Stephanie’s words were influenced by Sofia, then picked up from Marco.
