“That wasn’t what I meant. Can you stop thinking of me that way?” Joyce had tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at him. It was obvious that she was upset.

“Don’t think of you that way?” Stanley did not bother to hide the resentment and disgust in his eyes. “You’re just someone who likes to snitch on people right? If it wasn’t for you, my parents wouldn’t be dead because of your parents!”

Joyce closed her eyes in anguish as tears streamed down her face. “Stanley, how many times do you need me to repeat for you to believe that your parents’ death has got nothing to do with my parents. It wasn’t me who ratted out on them. I didn’t know how those people found out where your parents were. My parents did not participate in it. They were there to save your parents.”

“That’s enough!” Stanley grimaced in anger as he interrupted her. “I don’t want to hear you coming up with excuses. You have no right to talk about my parents!”

Joyce was taken aback by the man’s ferocious gaze. She instantly went pale and was not able to say anything else.

When Natalie came back from disposing of the flowers and glass shards, she was shocked to see Stanley glaring at Joyce with deep hatred. “What happened? Did you guys fight?” She asked.

Upon hearing the woman’s voice, Stanley immediately retracted his gaze and returned to his usual gentle and graceful self.

It was the same for Joyce. She lowered her head and wiped off her tears. Forcing a smile, she replied, “Don’t worry. Stanley and I were just having a small argument.”

“Is that true?” Natalie looked towards Stanley.
