Chapter 1581
When Love Comes Late
Curiously, Kristian inquired, âWhere are you headed?â
She clenched her teeth and uttered, âIâm going to handle Stella.
Can I count on you, loser?â
Following her statement, she rolled her eyes at Kristian, turned away, and exited the room.
At the bar, the flashing lights illuminated the dance floor, which was crowded with people engulfed in the scent of alcohol.
While holding a deck of cards, Tanya asked the two wealthy men next to her, âAre we playing or what? Youâre taking too long!â
At this moment, a familiar figure caught her eye.
Tanya tossed the cards onto the table and gestured at the wealthy men.
âIâm done for today.
I need to leave.
â
The men discarded their cards, stood, and departed.
Tanya waved to get Elizabethâs attention.

Elizabeth sat, tossed her bag aside, and ordered wine while humming a tune.
Observing Elizabeth closely, Tanya remarked, âLast time I saw you, you were quite concerned about handling Stella.
Now, with her wedding date nearing, you appear to be in high spirits.
Whatâs changed? Have you come up with a plan to deal with her?â
She winked in Elizabethâs direction.
Elizabeth sat with her arms crossed and a sharp gaze, stating, âIâve devised a plan, but I require your assistance.
â
âMe? How can I help?â Tanya asked with a smile, confused.
Elizabeth retrieved her phone and showed it to Tanya, signaling her to take a look.
It showed a picture of a girl.
Tanya studied the photo multiple times but didnât recognize the person.
âWhoâs this?â
Elizabeth grinned and explained, âI discovered her in my motherâs registration records.
Sheâs also from Seamarsh.
Despite being unqualified for the competition, she registered solely due to financial desperation.
â
Tanya was puzzled.
âWhatâs the plan?â
With a cunning expression, Elizabeth avoided answering Tanyaâs question and instead continued, âThe main reason sheâs in financial trouble is because of her two brothers.
â
Tanya interrupted impatiently, âWhy do you keep bringing up irrelevant people? Just tell me what to do.
I will definitely help you.
â
âCalm down.
â Elizabeth glared at her.
âHer two brothersâ favorite pastime is visiting the casino your cousin runs in Seamarsh.
They have already lost all their money there.
With a little pressure on your part, this girl will do anything for me.
â
âSimple!â Tanya exclaimed, understanding.
She picked up the phone and examined the girl in the photo.
âDevyn Padilla, correct? Iâll handle it!â
