Stella nodded.Marshall asked again, "Trinity University?"Stella paused and said with a smile, "There are six universities around here. What made you guess that particular one?""Do you remember that I was looking at something on my tablet when you just arrived at the coffee shop earlier?"Stella nodded. She looked very confused as though she wanted to ask him what did that had to do with her question.Marshall smiled and replied, "I was looking at the clips you dubbed in. You sounded very skillful, and I guess you probably dedicated some time to learning that. And, Trinity University is the only place that you could do that."Stella's cheeks turned extremely pinkish.She would feel proud whenever she looked at how the netizens praised her through the screen. But, she got very shy when Marshall complimented her in person."So, did I make the right guess?" Marshall asked with a smile.Stella nodded. "Impressive, but how did you know this place? You're not a graduate from aroun
The executives of Vinci Rivera Group were having a meeting.Keegan was rummaging through the papers silently as the vice president spoke.His phone on the table vibrated. He swept his glance across the text and ignored it.Vermont got very impatient while waiting for Keegan's reply because he could not wait any longer to see his reaction.So, he cropped the pictures and zoomed in on Marshall holding Stella's hand before sending them to Keegan again.[Your wife is holding hands with another man.]Keegan finally grabbed his phone and viewed the pictures.Clearly, the pictures were taken from a distance because of how blurry they looked. However, he could tell that the lady was Stella from the way she dressed, but the man's face who was holding her hand was blocked by the plants around him. Keegan could not see that man's face.Keegan frowned.Meanwhile, Vermont continued adding fuel to the fire as if he wanted things to turn worse.[Did your wife want a divorce from you because
Vermont rolled down his window.It was a traffic officer. "Ah, a Bentley."Vermont was shocked as he responded, "Yeah, what's wrong?"The officer swept his glance across him. "You can't stop here even if you're driving a Bentley. Move forward."Vermont was left speechless.He got chased away by the officer before he could wait for Keegan's reply.—"What did you major in?"Marshall placed a cup of cold drinks in front of Stella.Stella put her phone away and lifted her head. "Performing arts."Marshall was shocked. "I thought you majored in voice acting. Why didn't you stick with performing arts?"Stella did not want to share too much about her personal life with somebody else, so she said vaguely, "It's a long story. I'll tell you about it next time."Marshall noticed how she did not feel like answering that question, so he responded with a smile, "Sure.""Do lawyers like you earn a lot?"Stella threw him a question out of the blue.Before this, Stella noticed that even
The receptionist's hands were quivering with fear, and he quickly drew them back."M-Mr. Kane."Stella turned her head.'I don't know when did Keegan stand over there. But, his eyes are cold as if someone owed him money.'At the thought of that, Stella suddenly paused.'Whenever Keegan sees me, he probably thinks of the one billion he'll be paying. That's why he always gives me his attitude.'Stella smiled immediately, "Mr. Kane, sorry to keep you waiting."Keegan snorted, "You're too late!"Stella smiled apologetically. "I could have come half an hour earlier, but when I picked up the clothes, I saw a new product that was pretty good. So, I bought two shirts for you, which delayed me a bit."Keegan paused. Then, he snorted softly, "You have many excuses." However, his tone was much better than before.He glanced at her after he said, "Why are you still here?"Stella cursed the ancestors of the Kane family in her heart again. Then, she took the things from the receptionist a
Stella smiled with her eyes. "That won't be necessary. It'll be nice if you keep your promise to give me one billion dollars and divorce me after getting the Vinci Rivera Group's control."Keegan hummed softly, "Go make me a cup of tea."Stella was busy removing the tag. "Isn't Aldor outside? Ask him to make it for you."Keegan paused for a moment with his fork. "Are you planning to split half of the one billion with Aldor?"Stella froze. Then, she stood up with a fake smile. "Now, I'll go now! Mr. Kane, please wait a moment."Stella cursed quietly after leaving the office. 'You're just paying me some money and treating me like a maid. When I'm rich, I have to throw money at Keegan's face and make him succumb to me!'She bumped into Aldor not far away. Aldor was hurrying with the document in his hands. He greeted Stella politely after running into her.Stella stopped him and asked, "Where is the break room?""The break room?" Aldor was stunned for a moment and tentatively asked
Aldor shook his head. "Mr. Zinn said that Albert spoke with great confidence at the time. It didn't seem like he was bragging. Mr. Zinn knew his relationship with you, so he couldn't refuse directly. He said he would discuss it with the other shareholders."Keegan hesitated for a while. "Find out who Albert has been in contact with lately and what he is doing.""Okay. What about Mr. Zinn?""Ask him to continue his research with peace of mind. I'll assign others to deal with it.""Alright."Aldor was about to leave after reporting. However, Keegan stopped him. "Don't leave yet."Aldor staggered.Keegan flatly said, "Do you know how to take photos?"Aldor said after a delay, "Yes."Keegan handed him the phone and said, "Take a picture of these clothes for me.Make them look good."Although Aldor was puzzled, he did not ask much. He took Keegan's phone, made a light composition for the object to be photographed, and took a picture."Keegan, is this okay?"Keegan looked throug
The woman frowned and said, "I'm already like this, and you want to leave?"Vermont glanced at her. "And, don't call me again from now. Let's call it a day."In the end, the woman's face changed. She wrapped herself in a bath towel, gritted her teeth, and cursed, "Vermont, you bastard! How can you call yourself a human being?"Vermont snorted softly, "It's consensual. Don't make yourself sound innocent."He wrote a check and stuffed it into her bath towel as he said, "But, I'm always tender toward pretty girls. So, this is for your compensation."The woman's face changed a few times, and then she finally put away the check. But, she still scolded Vermont, "Jerk! You bastard! You will be punished eventually!"Vermont did not seem surprised. He shrugged, turned around, and left.——Keegan went to a meeting after the meal. Stella wanted to leave, but Keegan said he would take her for styling later. If she could not be found at that time, she would not get any money after the divor
These comments were considered polite. The others were either cursing her to death or sending genital pictures to her, which was unsightly.Stella's blood pressure rose all of a sudden.'How can there be such a person who takes one's undeserved gain for granted, is full of lies, and acts dumb? Keegan is such a sucker! He's a smart businessman, but why is he blind when he's looking for a woman?' Stella thought.The more she scrolled, the angrier she became. Stella could not help but send a message to Felicity. "Tell me, what strengths does Bella have that's worth Keegan obsessing over for so many years?"Felicity was confused about the script change. When she saw Stella's message, she said without thinking, "A leopard can't change its spots."Stella was speechless.Those offensive words made a little sense, and they made Stella feel a bit better immediately.'Since Bella was the first to stir up trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless. Anyone can be an angelic bitch. You would
