Before Betsey could hit send, Ste lunged forward, snatching the phone from her grasp and hurling it to the floor with a resounding crash.


    Her eyes alight with anger, Ste warned sharply, Dont stir up trouble.


    Betsey, taken aback by Stes boldness, stumbled over her words.


    However, her shock quickly morphed into outrage as she began to yell, So, Ste, just because youre Mrs.


    rk, you think youre above us all? Making a spectacle and tossing insults around! Their confrontation quickly attracted a crowd, with murmurs and whispers spreading Like wildfire.


    Ste, determined to end this, pulled out her own phone to call the authorities.


    But before she could dial, her phone began to ring, with Clint on the Line.


    Ste was about to press the answer key when Betsey made a grab for it and smashed it against the floor, dering triumphantly, Now were even. Anxious about Clint and losing patience, Ste scrambled to gather her broken phone, only to find it unresponsive.


    Observing her distress, Sanford offered his phone without hesitation.


    Ste gratefully epted it and dialed Clints number swiftly.


    Meanwhile, Betsey, realizing the tide was turning against her, quietly edged toward the exit, hoping to escape the escting scene.


    Sanford stepped in front of Betsey, saying, You cant leave until we settle this.


    Betsey burst into loud yells, her voice high and sharp.


    What are you up to? Are you trying to limit my freedom? Does bullying two elderly people like us make you think youre capable? Leona cut in, Exactly.


    He and Ste are in an improper rtionship, and we caught them in the act. Now hes trying to shut us down because hes scared.


    After speaking, she kept badmouthing Ste to the people around her.


    Look at this woman.


    Shes married, but now shes flirting with other men.


    Some people recognized Ste and whispered to each other.


    As the situation became more chaotic, Sanford asked the saleswoman to call the police.


    Ste tried calling Clint, but the call didnt connect.


    Betsey and Leona kept bothering her, leaving her frustrated and anxious. She walked up to Betsey, her eyes filled with a clear warning.


    If anything happens to my grandfather, youll be sorry.


    She turned to Sanford and said, I have to check on my grandfather.


    Sanford nodded.


    Go on.


    Ill take care of everything here.


    Ste gave a quick nod and rushed out.
