Chapter 1195

Luka emerged from the crowd, followed by a girl.

Stella couldn’t make out the details from her spot, but she didn’t care to know.

Since Luka had confessed his feelings at the hospital, Stella was unsure of his true intentions.

She didn’t want any interaction with him here.

She quickly looked away, intending to slip away unnoticed.

But as she turned, Luka was there, stopping her in her tracks.

“Stella.

”

Stella paused, uncertain whether to turn around and acknowledge Luka.

However, Luka had already approached her and said in a hushed tone, “Help me shake off that woman, as a favor for me shielding you in today’s incident.

My back is still aching.

”

Unable to devise an excuse to leave, Stella agreed reluctantly.

“Alright.

”

Observing Stella’s rigid expression, Luka offered a sly smile.

Stella didn’t engage with him.

As she turned, her gaze fell on Patti approaching.

To her astonishment, they were donning identical dresses.

Patti, equally taken aback, scrutinized Stella and queried suspiciously, “Luka, who is this woman?”

Before Luka could reveal Stella’s identity, Patti’s lips curled into a mocking grin.

Eyeing Stella’s dress, she remarked, “This is Luther’s wrap party.

Even if you can’t splurge on a high-end dress, you can’t parade in a counterfeit.

Don’t tarnish Luther’s film promotion.

”

Her tone feigned concern, but her intent was clearly to belittle Stella.

Luka, visibly upset, was about to interject, but Stella had already stepped closer to Patti.

In a courteous manner, Stella inquired, “Miss, what makes you claim my dress is a fake?”

Patti laughed dismissively.

“I acquired this dress for a hefty sum.

It’s a globally exclusive piece.

I doubt you could afford such luxury.

”

Always self-assured, Patti regarded Stella as a mere attention-seeking starlet, paying her little mind.

Unfazed, Stella retorted, “If you paid a steep price for that dress, then you’ve been swindled.

Your dress isn’t worth what you think.

It’s an imitation.

”

“What are you talking about?” Patti’s irritation was palpable.

“What would you know about luxury? You’re just an up-and-coming actress.

How dare you speak to me in that manner?”
