“Why not?” Tristan roared after Stella spoke, like a bloodthirsty wolf. Stella shrank her neck abruptly and looked to Cora and her husband, her eyes constantly pleading with them.

It had been many years since Cora gave birth to Stella, and seeing her pleading eyes, her heart softened. “Tristan, does Stella really have to go? Has Lance said who instructed him after he stepped down?

“He is the backbone of our Walton family, and I believe he will not be easily exposed. If so, why can’t we find a replacement? Does it have to be Stella? If she goes, her life will be ruined.

“You are her brother, and the future pillar of the Walton family. You should know better.”

When Stella heard her mother speaking up for her, she quickly said, “Yes, Tristan, Lance promised me that he would never betray me. I can’t go.

“I still have my own plans to carry out. I want to fight for Arthur again, and I just joined the Translation Bureau. I can’t lose my job because of this.

“Not only that, I’ve been a translator for so many years, I know a lot of diplomats, and there are a lot of powerful people. I can help you, please, I won’t mess around again.”

Tristan didn’t look directly at her, but thought about the pros and cons. After a few minutes, he slowly said, “Do you think you can fool Arthur with anyone?

“Who should we frame? A servant of the Walton family? Or one of their hitmen? He’s not stupid. I wouldn’t have lost that position to him in the first place.

“Before Lance was ousted, who in the Walton family could command him? No one except us here.

“Arthur’s reason for bringing down Lance is clear: to make an example of him. Don’t you see? He’s making an example for the Walton family.”

“Let Lydia do it. Let Lydia go, okay?” Tristan finished speaking, and Stella immediately shouted.

Everyone present was silenced by her shout. They looked at Stella and then at Lydia in disbelief.

Lydia, who had been standing silently watching them, was suddenly mentioned. Being asked to turn herself in, she didn’t react, only staring directly at her aunt.

After a few seconds, a sneer came out of her mouth. “Why me? And why aren’t the rest of you saying anything? Do you all agree with her?”

“Stella, that’s… not right,” Jagger finally spoke up.

Stella didn’t answer him, but walked up to Lydia and took her hand as she had in the past. “Lydia, please, help Jemma. For the sake of all these years that I have raised you, please help me, okay?
