When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1284

Elizabeth, ignoring Stella’s question, turned away and covered her face, erupting in loud sobs.

Stella frowned, but it clicked soon enough why Elizabeth did what she did.

The sound of Elizabeth’s choked cries drew the staff from the set.

They gathered around the two, confused.

Seeing approaching faces, Elizabeth wailed even harder, yet remained silent.

One staff member, unable to bear the spectacle anymore, took the initiative.

Stepping forward, she offered Elizabeth a tissue and asked gently, “What happened?”

Elizabeth clutched the tissue and lifted her tear-streaked face.

A collective gasp rippled through the crowd as they saw the telltale red marks.

Her voice was thick with sobs.

“I came to the bathroom and, and there was Stella.

She slapped me, twice! And she even…”

Elizabeth choked, the accusation too painful to voice.

Taking a shaky breath, she added, “She wants to take my role as the heroine.

Whispers erupted among the staff, their gazes shifting dubiously towards Stella.

“Stella wouldn’t do that,” one muttered.

“Could it be that she developed such ambitions because she acted out a small part of Elizabeth’s role yesterday?”

“I guess so.

I remember she mentioned to the media that she wanted to be an actress.

“Cats hide their claws.

Catching snippets of the conversations, Elizabeth smiled slightly.

But with practiced ease, she resumed her sobs.

“I thought Stella did a good job yesterday, so I congratulated her.

I never expected she’d assault me.

”

“Are you done?” Without missing a beat, Stella’s sharp retort cut through the tense atmosphere.

Stepping forward, her eyes narrowed.

“Elizabeth, you have to show evidence when you make such accusations.

Don’t sling mud at me.

”

As the crew debated, Luther burst onto the scene, drawn by the commotion.

His eyes scanned the crowd, Landing on Stella first, then settling on Elizabeth’s tear-stained face.

His angry voice boomed.

“Why aren’t you all on set preparing? What’s happening here?”

Elizabeth’s sobs softened to a low tremor, tears still clinging to her cheeks.

The nearby staff filled in Luther on the situation, ending with, “Stella hit her.

”

Luther’s face darkened.

His patience seemed to wear thin.

He turned to Stella, his voice firm.

“You hit her? Apologize now.
