Chapter 1124

Stella frowned and gave the girl an unpleasant look. She pulled her cap down and said nothing. Stellarealized that the girl, who was taking pictures of her, was the same girl standing next to her in theelevator. ‘Maybe she recognized me when the kid pulled my mask earlier. It doesn’t matter. I have toleave as soon as possible.’

Stella turned her head in Marshall’s direction, but he was nowhere to be seen. So, she pulled out herphone and texted him, [I think someone recognized me. I’ll buy the mugs some other time. I’m gonnago downstairs and try to leave. Don’t wait for me.]

After sending the message, Stella handed the glassware to the cashier and said, “Sorry. I don’t wantthese anymore.” She then turned around and left. When the girl saw her leaving, she ran up andgrabbed her. “You’re Stella Jewell, right?”

Stella broke away from the girl’s grip and coldly said, “I think you got the wrong person.”

“No, I don’t. It’s you!” The girl agitatedly said as she held her phone in Stella’s face and tried to yankher mask off, hitting her chin in the process.

Stella was in pain and subconsciously pushed the other party’s hand away. She accidentally hit thegirl’s phone, and it dropped. Everyone looked toward the direction of the sound while the girl hurriedlybent down to pick up her

phone. Stella was about to say something when another girl rushed up and pushed her away. “What doyou think you’re doing? Are you trying to hit her again?”novelbin

The push caused Stella to stagger. When she regained her footing, she saw that the girl’s phone wasfine. So, she kept quiet and turned to leave, but the other girl immediately stopped her. “How dare you

try to escape after dropping this poor girl’s phone?”

Stella narrowed her lips and responded in a deep voice, “Her phone hit me on the chin, so I instinctivelypushed it away. It’s called a reflex. And as you can see, her phone is perfectly fine.”

“Shouldn’t you apologize even if you didn’t break it? I was clearly taking pictures of the store. Whatmakes you think you could hit my hand like that?” The first girl said

aggressively.

‘What the hell? You weren’t taking pictures of the store. You literally held your phone in my face andasked for my name,’ thought Stella. She would have fought the girls if it was not for the wrong timing.

Stella took a deep breath and suppressed the raging fire in her heart. Then, she said in a muffled voice,“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”

But the other party said, “Who apologizes while wearing a mask? It’s not sincere enough. Take off yourmask and do it again!”

Stella looked at the girls and decided not to entertain them without something in return. “I can do that,but she has to delete the photos she took of me.”

The girl was taken aback. She did not expect Stella to react the way she did and started to get a littleannoyed. “She said she wasn’t taking pictures of you!”

“Well, I’m afraid she can’t take pictures in this store,” said Stella while pointing at a “No PhotographyAllowed” sign. “I’ll apologize again if you tell her to delete all the photos she took in here.”

Stella then called one of the staff, pointed to the two girls, and said, ’Hello. These two ladies have takenphotos of the store. Can you please check their phones? I came here to purchase some glassware, not

appear in other people’s galleries.”

The staff hastily apologized and asked the two girls to show the recent pictures in their albums just tomake sure. The girl who dropped her phone was flustered when she heard that. However, the other girlwas calm. “You’re not the law. You have no right to search our phones.”

“So you know the law, huh?” Stella laughed. She held her phone up to show them that she was calling911. “Since I’m also a law-abiding citizen, I think it would be best to settle this with the authorities. Thatway, we can amicably get things over with.”

The two girls panicked when they saw what was on the screen of Stella’s phone.
