At first glance, the manager immediately knew that her staff had judged the wrong person. She gave the staff an angry look before approaching the plainly dressed woman. “Ma’am, I’m sorry for what my staff did.” Sophie and Elizabeth were even more surprised because of what the manager was doing. “Hey, what are you doing? Do you know that that woman did not only do something bad to your staff?” Sophie said to the manager. The manager looked at the two women for a moment. Suddenly, she doubted what to do next. She needs to prioritize good customers because business is business.Stella extended her hand in front of Alex and he immediately gave her the gold card. “You can watch the surveillance camera footage, so you can find out who is really at fault here.”“Huh, you’re really arrogant! Who are you proud of, that old man you’re in love with?” Elizabeth asked Stella insultingly. A corner of Stella’s lips lifted and she shook her head. In that case, Charles was referring to Alex as hi
“Useless! How can you not trace where she is? It’s clear that she’s just around the corner and hasn’t left the country!” Charles angrily slammed the folder he was holding on the table. Sophie, who was quiet inside her brother’s office, was shocked by her brother’s anger. “Sorry, sir, but even her clothing purchase record is not available.” Roy’s head was bowed and nervous. Charles hit the table again with his fist out of anger.“Brother, I think that the person whom Stella traded you to has a bigger connection. Perhaps she also changed her name to hide her background from the family of the person who she traded you.”Charles’ eyes was still sharp when he looked back at his sister. His sister may be right and his ego cannot accept that. He felt that his ex-wife had cheated on him and made a fool of him. No wonder when she signed the divorce papers. Perhaps the woman had been preparing for their separation for a long time. “She will definitely attend the event, brother.”Charles’ ey
“Have you already chosen what to wear?” Fausto asked his granddaughter. “Yes, grandpa. How are you feeling?” She stroked her grandfather’s forehead. She knows his blood pressure rate has increased because of her cousins. She is really just waiting for her grandfather to introduce her to the public before she confronts those they suspect of being involved in her father’s death.“I’m fine, and don’t worry about me. You need to focus now on how to face them all and show you’re not weak!” She smiled sparingly at her grandfather. “I promised that I would not oppose your decisions in my life.”Fausto smiled again. It seemed that his granddaughter had learned to fight alone because of her experience in life. He should be thanking whoever impregnated her granddaughter.“Grandpa, as much as possible, I don’t want anyone else to know about my son.” Fausto nodded, he didn’t want others to meet his great-grandchild so far, especially since he was a boy. The child is now in the place where Stel
Diana looked at the woman staring at them. When their eyes met, surprise appeared on her face. “Stella?”Stella didn’t wonder if the woman was surprised to see her. Well, she didn’t know her true personality, so she would definitely wonder why she was there and on that floor. She was about to step closer to the woman when the man she was talking to suddenly turned towards her. Earlier, Diana was the only one who was surprised to see her. Now, she was the one who was shocked when she saw the man. Charles frowned when he recognized the woman he was looking at. What he thought earlier was just a mishearing of the name Diana mentioned. He didn’t think that he would find his ex-wife, whom he had been looking for a long time, in that company alone.“Gosh, it’s you, Stella!” Diana exclaimed exasperatedly and quickly approached the woman. “What are you doing here? I mean, since when have you been an employee here at our company?” Stella wanted to roll her eyes, but she stopped herself. She
“Sir, the meeting is about to start.” Charles turned to his secretary, who unknowingly followed him. He sighed before walking back to the conference room. Stella lost the will to go to the conference room. She also had a sudden headache, so she decided to leave. Alex quickly approached the girl and helped her get to the elevator. Charles clenched his fist when he saw the man with Stella. In that case, the same man was accompanied by his ex-wife. The man seems to have a connection to this company, so they are there. After getting off the elevator, the two faced him. Both of them gave each other a cold look before the elevator closed.“Are you all right, ma’am?” Alex asked the girl. “Let’s go straight to my son,” she whispered to Alex. The man did not ask any more questions and followed what the girl ordered. In the mansion, Fausto is restless while waiting for his assistant to call. He waited another twenty minutes until the phone rang. “Sir, I’m sorry if I called you just now.
“Is he the one you said was your friend, Diana?” Vanz asked his sister. “Brother!” She smiled and held on to her brother’s arm. “That’s him, brother, and please don’t torture him here.”Mauro scratched the back of his neck and could no longer refuse the girl’s invitation. He knows Vanz. He knows that he is one of the nominees for CEO of that company today. Vanz faced the man with a smile. “It’s nice to meet you again. I apologize for being in the conference room earlier if I have a lot of questions.” Diana pursed her lips and gently pulled her brother’s arm. It means that she didn’t like what he did earlier.“I understand that business is business. Even if I were in your position, I would do the same. Thank you for being professional, and please don’t give me special treatment because your sister became my friend.”“Mauro, don’t worry because you are no longer at work, so my brother will talk to you like this. Get used to him because he treats everyone close to me like this.” Her
“Ma’am, let me prepare you your favorite breakfast.” Marimar quickly moved away from the boss’s ex-wife. Stella tried to stop the maid, but she had already moved away. She looked back at Charles, as if she were hallucinating, when the strange emotion was reflected in his eyes. It was as if her sight was deceiving her, and she could read in Charles’ eyes that he longs for her. Charles blinks in realization. It was as if he hadn’t recognized his own feelings earlier and had briefly lost himself. “It’s good that there is still some consent left in your heart and you thought of visiting Grandpa.” The anger returned to her heart because of what the young man said. It seems that she was just deceived by her own eyes earlier. The man is still arrogant and has no love for her. He still thinks of her as a gold digger and a hypocrite.“I don’t want trouble. I didn’t come here to talk to you.” Charles was momentarily stunned by Stella’s cold conversation with him. He stared into her eyes, bu
“Hija, be patient with my grandson. Don’t worry about me because there is a nurse who is already taking care of me. I am happy to see you today, and I am relieved because you seem to be happy with your life now.”Stella smiled and nodded to the old man before turning to Charles. “My husband is rich, so I don’t have to work hard to earn money.”Charles’s jaw tightened and moved. He couldn’t accept that his ex-wife no longer needed him because it looked like he had been replaced with a man with more money. “But don’t worry, I’ll still visit Grandpa Ramon and take care of him when I have time. I guess I am still welcome here anytime I want to come since this is my house, ain’t I?” “Of course, but let Grandpa stay here because he prefers to live here.”The young man’s face was formal when talking to her. She shook herself when she looked at his face again. The man seemed to be doing it with purpose, and he even grew his hair longer. “Don’t assume. You’re not the reason why he grew his
