"Why will I want my stepdaughter killed?" Stella asked, appearing confused as she leaned out of her seat.
If she wanted to get out of this measly trap, she had to wear her confidence and maintain her poise otherwise, she would be used as duck food.
On the other hand, the detective refused to fall for her trick and looked past her facade.
"There are a handful of reasons for that, and if you'd like, I can list them out for you," he said, piercing his gaze through hers. Then, without waiting for her response or reaction, he added. "One, you've never had a reason to like her. It's not like she is your husband's biological daughter."
Instantly, a gasp escaped Stella's lips. She couldn't believe the police already knew this truth. There was only one person who could have told them, and it was definitely not Olivia or Stephanie.
