When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1283

Elizabeth’s expression grew icy.

“Don’t reject a generous offer only to suffer later.

I’ll ask one last time.

How much to leave Matthew?”

Stella scoffed.

“What’s your price?”

Seeing a flicker of hope, Elizabeth regained her smug demeanor.

She held up a finger.

“Ten million.

”

Stella burst into laughter, tears streaming from her eyes.

“Do you even realize Matthew’s status? Offering such a trivial sum for me to leave him? Are you underestimating me or Matthew? Is he only worth ten million to you?”

Elizabeth, speechless and infuriated, watched as Stella’s laughter ceased and her tone turned serious.

“How about I give you ten million to stay away from Matthew and me?”

Stella asked.

Elizabeth’s face visibly darkened.

Taking a deep breath, she hissed, “How dare you insult me? Don’t you know who I am? I’m Elizabeth Wallace, and no one has ever dared cross me like that!”

Stella’s smile widened, a hint of mockery dancing in her eyes.

“If you keep causing trouble and harassing me, I’ll ensure your days are filled with nothing but insults.

”

Elizabeth’s anger reached a boiling point.

Fists clenched, she trembled violently.

Taking a lunging step, she aimed a slap at Stella’s face.

But Stella, prepared for the outburst, effortlessly sidestepped the attack.

The momentum sent Elizabeth stumbling forward.

Gripping the washbasin, she spun around, a ferocious glare aimed at Stella.

Standing upright, she raised her hand again, determined to succeed.

Stella, though able to avoid another slap, felt a tinge of anger at Elizabeth’s persistence.

She snapped, “You can continue this disruption on set, but know this:

I have the power to kick you out, stripping you of the lead role entirely.

The threat struck a chord, but Elizabeth refused to back down completely.

With a cold sneer, she met Stella’s gaze.

“So, you’re still aiming to steal my role as the heroine?”

Stella returned the stare, her voice chilling.

“If your performance is subpar, and your presence undermines the crew, someone more suited will replace you in no time.

”

Elizabeth, surprisingly, fell silent.

Her expression seemed almost calm.

Two deliberate steps brought her closer to Stella.

Just as Stella thought she’d leave, two sharp sounds echoed in the small bathroom.

Elizabeth had slapped herself, twice, with brutal force.

Each blow left its mark on her delicate face.

Before Stella could react, Elizabeth’s actions had left her bewildered and speechless.

“What in the world are you doing?” Stella asked.
