Consider it a bribe? John’s expression shifted. Jude seemed to be acknowledging with a sideways glance that he was pursuing Stella. God, I'm so sorry. John was unable to stop blinking. What about Clarence and Stella if Jude was truly after them? John felt that Stella’s identity was similar to theirs, even though he didn't think Stella needed to rely on Clarence to get into the Conrad Group. However, it appeared that her identification was more complicated than that at this point. How else could they...? As John considered this, he couldn't help but cough a little. "Are you serious about Stella, Mr. Jude? While all of us are just regular folks, you may think that regular girls are... I would like to clarify, nevertheless, that we are also human. Mr. Conrad recently demoted Stella, and you..." He spoke just half as much because of his hesitation. He was afraid that by accident offending the other person, he wouldn't dare say anything at all. Jude grinned a little, though, becaus
Stella noticed Clarence car when she came downstairs. Then Joseph saw her and greeted her. "Assistant Radomil!" At first, Stella treated him kindly. However, she had lately engaged in a cold war with Clarence, and when she met Joseph, she gave him a hard time. She gave him a quick, stern gaze before turning away, avoiding him, and walking away. Joseph gave his head a tap. What had gone wrong, he wondered? Clarence came down shortly after that. He brushed him by without even looking at him as Joseph grinned and greeted him. Maybe they got back together and started fighting again? Stella took a day off and visited the hospital the following day for a physical examination. Upon reviewing the data, the physician advised her to increase her rest and avoid becoming overly fatigued because the fetal position was not stable. Stella took notes, closed the report, and turned to go. She was strolling outdoors when she suddenly recognized someone. Examining it more closely revealed that
Riley once mentioned her older brother to Stella. She always concerned that she would not be taken seriously because her eldest brother didn't appear to care much for her and that she was the younger sister who would eventually acknowledge her. Riley had been consoled at the time by Stella. However, she was clueless as to why Riley had suddenly become irritated. Now that Jeff had asked, Stella felt obligated to speak on Riley’s behalf because they are friends. Jeff did not respond to her as his expression somewhat darkened. "Then you know everything about her and she knows everything about you too?" he asked her after some time. Stella nodded, even though she didn't know what this question meant. Of course, she and Riley were together all the time. Jeff remained silent, the car fell silent again, and Stella was at a loss for words. They reached their destination not too long afterward. Stella thanked Jeff for the ride and said as soon as the car came to a stop, "Thank yo
"Yes, by myself. No matter what I suffer in the future, it has nothing to do with you,” Stella said with a pursed lip and a chilly gaze at Kelvin. “I'm hoping you won't entangle me anymore. Our company is structured in a very transparent way. Workers aren't allowed to fall in love with one another. I believe you are married, am I correct? You have constantly hounded me, a single girl, as a married man. I am able to file a direct complaint against you. Next, however...” Kelvin’s expression darkened. "I had no idea you had such a sharp tongue. Have you ever considered whose land you currently occupy? Would you dare say such a thing to me? Do you not think you would be kicked out of the Conrad Group by me?” "When did you have so much power that you can expel people from the Conrad Group casually?" Stella was cut off from speaking by a frigid male voice. The sound was not unfamiliar to her, and before she could respond, Kelvin blurted, "Mr. Jude , why are you here?" Jude? Stella’s
Stella gave her a quick glance but remained silent. "Have you heard? I'm conversing with you.” "You roar so loudly, do you think others can't hear it?" Stella asked with a cool smile after hearing it. "So you should answer me," Lily gave her a fierce gaze. "Are you lacking anything to say? I have to leave work soon, so hurry up." Lily wanted to run over and rip Stella apart because she was so furious, but she had to restrain herself because of her plan. "I am to blame for what we did earlier. I'm sorry to you." Stella hesitated, unable to resist raising an eyebrow and giving her a quick look. All she could see of Lily was a depressing appearance, and the intensity of the rage in her eyes made it seem as though she was eager to get over and start beating her up. "Miss Lily , you came to apologize to me with a vicious hatred," Stella remarked. “I believed you harbored a strong animosity toward me before you stated this." "You!" "To be honest, I don't really care what
Clarence halted his mobility aid. He raised his head and studied Stella’s pale face with his icy gaze. His tone was mocking, as was the way he stared at her. "Did you intentionally do it? Stella, you have too much confidence in yourself." She bit her lip and became pale, saying, "It is obvious whether or not I am telling the truth." Clarence wore a neutral expression. "Get out of way." Stella "..." After bearing with it, she turned around and walked away from him. Before he arrived, she shut the elevator door and thought angrily that he could wait for the next one. What a bastard! With the intention of going after the bath, she went straight back to the room and started to take a bath. John texted her as she lay there, asking if she had gone to sleep and if she had prepared the dress for tomorrow. He promised to come over and apply her makeup before they went to the event. Stella questioned John about Riley’s appointment while she was thinking about it. She felt better
Despite not seeing her coming, Stella nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead; I'll wait for you here." Riley waved her hand and said upon hearing that, "No, you don't have to wait for me, I'll be alright in two minutes, so come downstairs." "... Well then, I'll wait for you downstairs." After that, Stella grabbed her purse and cell phone and headed downstairs. Riley was at last relieved when she departed. She went without a second thought, feeling fortunate that Stella’s was not a cunning woman. Riley shut the door behind her and opened the wardrobe again, pulling out the suit she had tucked into the lattice. She removed the two buttons off the garment and hung it up. She smiled as she tucked the button into her purse. After the button was removed, Stella’s wouldn't have discovered the truth, right? Stella’s wouldn't be suspicious even if she came to see this clothing because the button wasn't there. However, Riley’s expression darkened once again. Charlotte had a button in her hand
Riley put Clarence up when she came at the car and did not get off again. Angrily, Stella stood where she was. Just then, a car pulled up in front of her. She spotted Jude when the window was rolled down. "Are you visiting the business? I'm able to let you go." Jude’s eyes had lost their coldness. He remained courteous and kind. When Stella unconsciously glanced at Clarence, she saw that Riley was bending over to get things ready for him. Clarence appeared to look at her on purpose, but he withdrew his view as though he didn't seem to care. "Stella, come here quickly." Riley turned to face her and waved. ".. Not necessary." Stella , for some reason, declined her advances, and before they could reply, she yanked open Jude’s car door and took a seat. "Please give me a ride, drive." Jude looked through the rearview mirror and nodded, "Ok." The car in front of it continued to drive away, but it stopped. Joseph asked as he sat in front of Riley and turned to face her, "Miss
