"Hello." Jane Sampson nodded distantly and returned a "hello" as a response.
She could understand where Stella Carter's hostility towards her came from.
Because of her appearance, Stella Carter was demoted from the female lead to a stand-in, so it was normal for Stella to be angry with her.
"Brother James Carter, can I sit here and eat with you?" Stella Carter sensed that Jane Sampson's attitude towards her was indifferent, so she didn't continue speaking with Jane.
Stella assumed, given James Carter's personality and their slight family connection, that James Carter wouldn't object to her request.
But unexpectedly, the man sitting next to Jane Sampson, who had been keeping his head down and hadn't looked at her, suddenly spoke up.
His voice coldly refused her.
"It's inconvenient," said James Black.
James Carter saw Stella's face change drastically and almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
