"You're from Miller Jewels?" Karen squeezed out the words through gritted teeth.

Yvonne was stunned. She wondered why Karen was being so hostile to her all of a sudden.

The next second, Karen stood up abruptly and grabbed Yvonne's arm. She dragged her outside.

Seeing that, Stephen caught Karen's shoulder at once and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"

Yvonne was also confused. "Weren't we chatting well just now? Why are you suddenly chasing me away?"

"If I had known that you were from Miller Jewels, I wouldn't even have let you into my house! Get out now! Or else don't blame me for using the broom to drive you out!"

Karen reproached her sternly. "Buzz out! You are not welcome here!"

Seeing how emotional Karen was, Yvonne could only give in. "Okay. We'll go back, but—"

"Out!"

Karen had no intention of talking to them anymore. Her hand on Yvonne was trembling. She feared that Karen's health might be affected. So she gave Stephen a look, telling him to let Karen go.
