NovelBarChapter 294 Hearing Imogen's frustration, Johanna gently comforted her. "Imogen, I know you mean well, but I'm just ordinary. I only have one brother, and he's missing at sea-there's not even a body to recover. "With my status, I'm not worthy of the Russell family and even less so of Mr. Russell. So, please don't say such things anymore. I don't want to upset him..." This only made Imogen more upset. She retorted, "Who says you're not worthy? Your brother was my fiancé. He's gone, so I should take care of you!" Johanna sniffed and whispered, "But Mr. Russell doesn't like me... It's better not to force it." "But I like you, and that's enough!" Imogen said proudly.

He glanced at her and finally spoke, not in a comforting tone, but rather coldly. "I don't need you to remind me." She was taken aback.
Imogen was his sister. He would naturally be patient with her. Did he need her to remind him? With that, Stephan turned and walked away, his tall figure soon disappearing from view.
Johanna stood there, gently biting her lip. She reminded herself to be patient and not rush things. She would take things slow as there would be plenty of time.
