Upon hearing that Lorenzo had been injured, Stephanic seemed to take it in stride. After a few words of concern,
Ella changed the subject.
“Catlin is probably going to jail now. I just checked the news carefully. She's been charged with murder,” Ella
said.
“Did that woman die?” Stephanie asked.
She had been watching the news when Sebastian cback, so she hadn't seen the rest. But since Catlin had
been taken away in handcuffs by the police, she could tell that this incident was indeed serious.
“The woman was taken to the hospital. There hasn't been any follow-up yet. It’s said that one of her children
was also injured,” Ella added.
Stephanie was somewhat surprised. When she had been at the Hart residence before, she had seen Catlin being
so kind to Olivia and had thought she was a good person.
But now, seeing that Catlin could actually harm a child, Stephanie no longer thought of her as kind.
Ella warned, “You need to be careful. The Hart family is definitely going to cafter you.”

“Cafter me?” Stephanie wondered what the Hart family could possibly want with her. She thought to herself
that maybe because she had Sebastian behind her, they wanted her to find a way to get Catlin out of trouble.
Ella said, “Lettell you, the Hart family is very close-knit. They only see you as an outsider.”
It was a bit of a harsh reminder, but Stephanie knew it was the truth. Among the entire Hart family, she was the
only
outsider.
“Just wait and see. Tyler is definitely going to cto you,” Ella said.
The Hart family was now in disarray. While others might not, Tyler would definitely seek out Stephanie.
“I'll be back tomorrow,” Stephanie said.
Ella asked in surprise, “Really?”
“Barring any unforeseen circumstances, yes,” Stephanie replied.
Hearing this, Ella felt a bit disappointed. After spending these few days with Lorenzo, she had realized that
people around Stephanie seemed to easily run into trouble.
Lorenzo had even been injured today.

The two of them chatted on the phone for a good while before hanging up. By then, Ella had finished cooking
apple oatmeal.
This time, she had done a better job; the amount of water she added was just right.
As she brought the oatmeal into Lorenzo’s room, he was on a phone call.
His loose robe concealed the bandage on his shoulder blade, but his powerful pectoral muscles were bare.
It was then that Ella got a clear look at the tattoo that stretched from his neck down to his chest muscles.

The large tattoo looked dangerous, but at the stime, it gave off an inexplicable sense of security.
Ella couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling a strange warmth spreading through her body.

Hearing her movements, Lorenzo turned his head and glanced at Ella, then said into the phone, “No need. Let's
make sure it never happens again.”
His tone was particularly menacing when he said the last part, which startled Ella.
Ella stepped forward with the oatmeal. “The oatmeal is ready. It’s still a bit hot; let it cool down a bit before you
eat it.”
Lorenzo watched the steam rising from the oatmeal on the small table.

It seemed like the first the had ever eaten in his room. No matter where he was or what kind of injury he
had, he had never eaten in his room before.
Staring at the rising steam, Lorenzo was momentarily lost in thought.
Ella said, “I'll go out now.” Seeing that Lorenzo didn’t respond, she didn’t dare to stay any longer.
Lorenzo frowned. “Is that all?”
Ella was taken aback. “What?”
Lorenzo asked, “Is there nothing else?”
Ella didn’t know how to respond, because Lorenzo had never told her to prepare any other food. Besides, she
only knew how to cook oatmeal and nothing else.
Lorenzo complained, “Do | need to spell it out for you?”
Ella thought to herself, ‘Of course you need to tellwhat you want to eat.
But even if he told her, it wouldn't make a difference, because she really couldn't cook anything else.
Ella shook her head. “I don’t know how to cook anything else.”
Lorenzo looked at her. “You don’t?”
