Chapter 1200
As the whispers swirled, Stella couldn't resist a second glance at Elizabeth, noting undeniable similarities.
Elizabeth, sensing Stella's scrutiny, met her gaze with a significant look before gracefully descending the stage,
wine glass in hand, and approached Matthew.
Encountering Stella, Elizabeth's enthusiasm was palpable.
“You must be Mrs.
Clark.
Such beauty! We've been told we resemble each other.
Does that bother you?”
Stella was taken aback by Elizabeth's direct approach, realizing that not everyone was comfortable discussing
resemblances with others.
However, Elizabeth seemed unfazed by such conversations.
With a gentle shake of her head and a friendly smile, Stella responded, “Of course not.
You're quite beautiful yourself.
Elizabeth offered no reply to this, her attention shifting to Matthew.
“| owe you my gratitude, Mr.

Observing the exchange with a puzzled look, Stella listened as Elizabeth continued, her smile unwavering.

Clark, here, was my savior.

Matthew, his expression unreadable, tightened his grip on Stella's hand and offered a straightforward
explanation.
“It was a cold night.
| couldn’t just leave her there.
It was the right thing to do, nothing more.
His attempt to distance himself from the situation left Elizabeth slightly embarrassed, yet she maintained her
composure, adding a polite, “Thank you, Mr.
Clark.
Matthew didn’t reply.

A brief, awkward silence followed, eventually broken by Luther's timely arrival.
His presence eased the tension considerably.
Luther, addressing Matthew, expressed gratitude.
