Stella suddenly had a hunch that Charles was purposely bringing her here.

He must have two motives for doing this.

The first one was to pry out the location of her mother’s grave, and to force her to kneel down in front of his wife like what they were about to do now.

If she didn’t agree to do this, he would have reason to brand her as an unfilial daughter, which gave a boost to this argument that she must have a motive for entering the Steward family.

She had to give up on her personal feelings for now, seeing that she should value the bigger picture.

If she wanted to find out more information, she couldn’t get herself shunned by the Steward family at this moment.

If she needed to kneel down, she would just do it. It’s not the end of the world.

She even addressed Jeffrey as her dad for some time before this too.

Just as Stella was about to kneel down, a sound broke her actions, “Mr. Steward, Ms. Radomil.”

Charles and Stella both turned in the direction of the voice.

They never anticipated bumping into William here.

William had a bouquet of flowers in his hand as he flashed a smile, “Are you here to give your prayers?”

Charles was obviously irritated at his interjection, but he tried to maintain his composure, “Mr. William, why are you here?”

William answered, “I am here to visit an old friend. It’s a coincidence to bump into you here.”

Then, he turned his attention to the tombstone in front of Stella and studied the woman with a smiling face, “Who is this person?”

Charles had a distant look in his eyes, “It’s my wife.”

“So it’s Mrs. Steward. Sorry for not being able to recognize at first glance.”

Charles waved his hands dismissively, “You don’t have to bother yourself with me, Mr. William.”
