This woman was despicable! Dahlia went to Caline to replace Stella, but Stella avoided her.

Dahlia, despite her prestigious background, couldn't bring herself to cause a scene in front of others, even though she'd fallen on hard times.

Since Stella wouldn't see her, she waited outside.

Stella didn't show up, but instead, Dahlia encountered Jaylene Saun and Darcie Arnold.

Seeing Dahlia again, Darcie showed no warmth as before; she just greeted her casually.

On the other hand, Jaylene warmly spoke to her, "Aunt Dahlia, what brings you here? Are you here to look at perfumes?" Dahlia forced a smile and said, "I need to talk to Stella about something. Jaylene, can you take me up to see her?" Just as Jaylene was about to speak, the receptionist nearby intervened, "Ms. Saun, Ms. Hall said she won't be receiving any visitors today." It was clear: Stella knew Dahlia was downstairs but deliberately chose not to see her.

Dahlia's expression soured, but she swallowed her anger and appealed to Jaylene, "Jaylene, can you help me? I have something urgent to discuss with Stella." Jaylene intended to speak up for Dahlia, but Darcie reminded her, " Jaylene, let's go." Jaylene didn't want to miss the opportunity to please Keegan's mother, so she whispered, "Mom, Aunt Dahlia is still here waiting.

Darcie replied coolly, "If she wants to wait, that's her business.

It's none of your concern.

Don't meddle." "But-" Darcie interrupted her, "If she needs something, she'll replace her son.

If her own son doesn't want to deal with it, you can imagine Keegan's attitude toward her.

Minding your own business won't make Keegan appreciate you, but might even make him dislike you.

Think about it." Jaylene pressed her lips together and ultimately remained silent.

As the mother and daughter left, Dahlia was infuriated, cursing the manipulative mother and daughter duo in her heart.

She waited at the company all day, even until closing time, but never saw Stella.

After having accompanied Darcie to meet clients, Jaylene returned to Caline and saw that Dahlia was still at the company.

Approaching her, she called out, "Aunt Dahlia, why haven't you left yet?" Dahlia had been waiting here all day, and as the 24-hour limit set by the debt collectors approached, she became increasingly restless. Her complexion wasn't good, and upon hearing Jaylene's voice, she hurried over.

"Jaylene, what time do you get off? Take me to replace Stella.

I really can't wait any longer; it's urgent." Frowning, Jaylene replied, "Aunt Dahlia, Stella has already left.

Didn't you see her?" Dahlia turned pale and trembled as she cursed, "That wretched woman!" Jaylene invited Dahlia into the lounge, had someone bring her a glass of water, and comforted her while asking, "Aunt Dahlia, can you tell me what you want to talk to Stella about?" Dahlia couldn't hold back her tears anymore and choked up, " Jaylene, my dear child, it would've been so good if it had been you with Keegan from the beginning.

How could he choose that venomous woman Stella!" After Jaylene consoled Dahlia for a while, Dahlia finally stopped crying.

Jaylene then listened to her story.
