This woman was despicable! Dahlia went to Caline to find 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 find her son.
If her own son doesn't want to deal with it, you can imagine Keegan's attitude toward her.
