And if you doubt my reach, feel free to test it.

Isnt that a win-win for both of us? The response ccold, direct, and final. Did you not hearthe first time? You have one week to decide! A flicker of clarity pierced Lindsays clouded mind.

The only response was curt and dismissive.
Leave now.
Before Lindsay could press further, a hand clamped over her nose and mouth from behind.
She thrashed and kicked wildly, but the struggle was futile.
Darkness consumed her again, this tpulling her into unconsciousness.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself slumped in her wheelchair, positioned haphazardly on a patch of grass beside the street.
Before she could piece together her thoughts, her phone buzzed.
Her trembling fingers grabbed the device.
A single message glared back at her-a chilling reminder of the one-week deadline.
Fury erupted within her, her face flushing crimson as her grip tightened around the phone.
She cperilously close to hurling it into the void of night.
Her hatred for Stella burned hotter than ever, a wildfire consuming every shred of reason.

However, Lindsay, lost in her thoughts about navigating the tricky situation was/completely unaware of Katelyns peculiar behavior.
She headed straight to her room, slamming the door shut behind her. Katelyn stood at the threshold, staring at the closed door, and let out a sigh of relief.
Relieved that Lindsay hadnt noticed her strange demeanor she silently prayed for the issue to resolve itself without her involvement. Meanwhile, Matthew drove Stella to the studio.
Throughout the trip, he kept apologizing.
Stella, Im sorry.

Can you forgive me? Stella, however, remained expressionless, offering no response.
