"Am I a devil?" Jude said, his eyes darkening as he watched her take a step back.

"What?" Stella stared up at him, confused, not understanding what he meant.

"If I am not a devil, then why are you so afraid of me?" Jude asked with a sardonic smirk.

Stella : "I apologize, Jude. " Although she didn't fear him, Clarence would cause her problems if he discovered it. That individual... Despite his dislike for her, he was extremely possessive as she was legally his wife.

"It is ok, I don't blame you." With a soft smile, Jude said in a whisper, "Let me go, you go upstairs first."

At that she made a small facial adjustment and said, "No, let me do you, you can go back to work." He had helped her in the canteen the previous time, but Stella had not thanked him. She would now run away if she saw him.

With regret, Stella said in a hushed voice, "By the way, thanks for helping me last time in the canteen."

“Alright, did Clare come get you later?" Jude said.”Clarencecares about you.”
