Jake looked at Joshua. "Forget Haynes; that schemer Foreman will undoubtedly do everything he can to obstruct Ms. Cameron, constantly whispering poison in her ear about you."
Harold knew Jake's concerns were valid. Foreman was incredibly insidious; even Joshua had been tricked by him, nearly dying in that fire. Stella felt a sense of gratitude towards Foreman and might be swayed by his deceptive words.
Joshua's expression, however, remained impassive.
"Stella won't," he said, his tone even. "She understands what matters most."
Jake was still worried. "But…"
Harold tugged at his arm. "Mr. Gardner said she won't, so she won't. Let's go, Jake. Let Mr. Gardner get some rest."
Jake hesitated, but ultimately left with Harold.
Once they were outside, Jake demanded, "Harold, why did you stop me? My concerns are legitimate, aren't they? Stella has known Foreman for so long and always considered him a friend. Even though he's done plenty of shady things, he targeted Mr. Gardner, not her. Besides, she's too soft-hearted. She's not ruthless and decisive like Ms. Quinn, who could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Mr. Gardner as an equal. If Mr. Gardner wasn't propping Stella up like this, he wouldn't be so exhausted that his headaches are flaring up. Only Ms. Quinn can treat his condition…"
