Xenia tightened her grip on her phone and started feeling anxious. "What exactly are you trying to say?"Stella said, "Miss Garcia, calm down. I mean no harm. "However, it's a little inconvenient for us to talk about this over the phone. Let's meet up at the cafe on New Water Street tomorrow. "It won't be too late for you to reject me if you really are not interested in what I told you after we meet."Xenia looked very hesitant. Keegan was looking for his phone when he spoke soundlessly. "Say okay."So, she paused and said, "Okay then. I'll see you tomorrow."She looked at Keegan after hanging up. "Why do you want me to see her?"He said flatly. "That woman you spoke to is my lover."Xenia was speechless. 'Why would they look for me separately, then? Can't they just work together?'Keegan continued, "Be there on time tomorrow. Just agree with her on everything she has to say, and I'll fulfill every condition that she offers you."Xenia had no reason to turn down such a fant
Stella said, "Your sister was molested during summer break last year, and the person demanded a ridiculous amount of compensation after your sister hurt him by accident, right?"Xenia managed to keep herself composed after how Keegan had done the same and caught her off guard last night."Yes, how did you find out?""That's not important," Stella said slowly, "You were in dire need of money. Albert called you, so you wanted to borrow money from him. "That was when he suggested you be his secret lover, and he would pay you a hundred thousand every month so that you could pay off your debt. "You didn't have a choice but agreed to be his mistress for three years, is that right?"Xenia's face turned pale. Clearly, Stella reminded her of some unspeakable past.She went to an interview with her roommate during the campus recruitment and met Albert there.During the campus talk, she felt like somebody kept looking at her as she sat in front of the stage. Albert approached her after
Xenia did not take it. Instead, she asked Stella, "What do you want me to do?"Stella shifted her gaze to the photo. "You saw it too. You looked very similar to my mother. Albert did not bump into you by accident; it's because of your face that resembles my mother a lot."Xenia paused and said, "He's still in love with your mom, huh?"Stella sneered. "You're wrong. He's in love with nobody. He's selfish, and the person he'll only ever love is himself." She continued, "I want you to get the evidence of Albert and Hylda causing my mom's death. I want them to pay the highest price for their actions and turn their lives into a living hell."Xenia was shocked by the hatred she saw in Stella's eyes as she said that. Then, after pausing for a while, Xenia asked, "H-how can I help you?"The expression on Stella's face turned calmer. "I'll let you know how..."Stella thought about something when she was about to leave. "Your sister is still young. You should let her continue studying
Stella was the kind of person who would only be very talkative around people she was familiar with but awkward with strangers.The production had started a week, yet she only talked to a few other actors or the crew. She was not very familiar with them at all. She would only speak to them when they asked her a question. At other times, she would just be eating or looking at her phone.She was scrolling through Facebook when she received a text from Keegan: [Let's eat together tonight.]Stella snapped a photo of the delicacies in front of her and texted back: [I'm eating now.]Keegan immediately replied: [With who?]Stella sent him another text: [Leighton is leaving town, so Stuart organized a gathering before he does.]Keegan felt very good after knowing that Leighton was going to leave.However, he asked anyway: [Is he done with all his parts?]Stella: [Not yet. He's a big star and has a lot of jobs. He's only making a guest appearance in this drama anyway. Otherwise, why woul
Stella pursed her lips. She went back to the homepage and recovered her chat history.Then, her face darkened.She wondered why Keegan had turned into a completely different person who could guess how she felt at times. He would even know when she was hungry.She thought that they had some kind of connection, but she was totally wrong! Keegan unblocked his own number when he used her phone to take a picture of her and Julian when he sat for the college entrance exam!It turned out that he had been spying on her WhatsApp story these two months!Keegan was way too good at pretending. He even told Stella not to unblock his number too early when he transferred her money because he wanted to prove himself to her.'Bullshit! He only said that because he knew I'd find out what he did if I unblocked him!'Stella clenched her teeth as she sent Keegan a middle finger emoticon. Then, she blocked him again.Keegan knew that he was exposed when he saw what Stella had sent him. He immediatel
Stella wasn't bothered by Olivia's call because she had upset Olivia greatly at Cordelia's birthday party. Olivia was only following Dahlia's instructions because she wanted to assist her husband with his work.However, Olivia's husband not only had a secret lover but also had an illegitimate child with them. Olivia never expected her close friend Dahlia to keep such secrets from her, despite knowing about them for a long time. Stella couldn't find any reason not to resent Dahlia.Stella suspected that Olivia might have had something to do with the accident at the birthday party. She had no interest in whatever Olivia was proposing.Olivia was sharp and tactful, managing to completely avoid involvement in the fireworks accident. This showed Stella how cautious Olivia could be. She was worried that Olivia might try to set her up if she associated with her. So, she immediately blocked Olivia because she wanted to stay away from any involvement with her."Bella, your bag is so beautif
"But the pictures she took were incredibly detailed, and it didn't seem like a fake at all. A friend of mine wanted to rent the bag for a photoshoot, but the seller insisted on selling it. When she finally saved up enough money and contacted the seller again, it was already gone. So, I doubt it's a fake. Besides..." The person hesitated. "I believe Bella's bag has the same serial number as the one I saw online."The atmosphere became a little strange after that person said that.That person was implying that Bella bought the bag on a website that sold used items, and the bag was pre-owned. Bella was a rising fashion icon in showbiz and that was the last thing she wanted others to know she did.Everybody shifted their gaze to Bella. However, Bella acted rather calmly as she put on a faint smile. "You've probably made a mistake. I bought this from an authorized store."Stella looked for a moment before looking back at her phone.'An authorized secondhand store.'She did not have an
"I watched that show too! I was completely shocked when the door was pushed open. That's literally my dream room!""I mean, isn't that the dream of every woman in this world?""Bella is so humble. I don't see her showing off her collection at all. I'd have a rotation of different bags every day without using the same one for a month!"Bella smiled. "Most of them were gifted by my sponsors. I only bought a few bags, and some of the purchases were work-related. There were some outdated designs, and I plan to get rid of them or give them away. I'm running out of space."Her words made the actresses both envious and jealous.None of the actresses would give their bags away, even if they were only worth a few thousand. Bella could only do that because she was famous and earned much more than them.Yolanda gazed at Stella, who was wiping the sauce off her phone screen. Then, she suddenly said, "Why don't you give some of them to Stella? Even though bag designs are very subjective, usin
