These days, Stella not only studies but also rushes to the mall to study with Lisa every day after work.

Stella worked harder than she realized, and Lisa was amazed by her improvement these days, even though at first she hadn't had much hope for her. She didn't feel worn out or terrified of difficulty.

At times, Stella would get so exhausted that she would struggle to stay awake at her workplace before eventually nodding off on the table.

Lisa couldn't help but tease her as she could see her black circles. "You continue in this manner. Clarence wouldn’t feel sorry for you.”

At the mention of Clarence’s name, Stella hesitated and then gave a sly smirk. She remained silent. Since her marriage to Clarence , this was the longest cold war period. She didn't approach Clarence on her own, and he regarded her like an invisible person.

They disregarded each other more than strangers, even though they shared a room. Stella gave it some thought and concluded that it was likewise good. Sh

    Everyone was taken aback! Lily and Nara’s demeanor shifted, showing that they were annoyed with Stella. It seems that Stella didn't give them any serious thought at all? Then, with whom were they conversing? "Stella, do you have too much conceit? Do you truly believe that just because your supervisor approves of you, you can act anyway you choose in the department and disregard everyone else?" “Yes, but isn't today only a breakfast? You truly are too serious about yourself. The person in charge of us has a spouse. You woo a married man, don't you feel too bold?" Their statements were unacceptable, and their voices were growing louder and louder. While some observers felt that they were excessive, there were also those who enjoyed causing trouble. "Would she mind being blatant? Any male will do for her in bed. She really is a bitch.” Stella, "..." "Yes, a shameless bitch!" As her aura softened, Stella echoed, "Putting breakfast on your table means that you seduce a ma

    "Don't worry, you wait here and I will go to tell Tabitha." Lily stood up and went out. Nara was left scratching her fingers because she was so anxious. Alternatively, when Stella arrived in Kelvin’s office, he sat there grinning and said, "Radomil, you are here." When Stella heard it, she scowled a little and said, "Kelvin, what can I do for you?" Kelvin continued to give her a gentle stare. His seemingly gentle glance was actually a harsh punishment for her. She couldn't help but remind him, her eyes oily and numb. "Mr. Kelvin, if there is nothing wrong, I will leave first!" "Wait, I want to ask you, is breakfast still good for you?" Kelvin remarked nervously as she turned around. How absurd... After giving it some thought, Stella blurted out, innocently, "Breakfast? I failed to notice any breakfast. I have to work if there isn't anything else." Kelvin circumnavigated the table and gripped the door tightly, preventing her from leaving. Stella seemed distant. Her expre

    "Very rigid," Stella remarked. "Please, how did the Conrad Group become the largest company group in B City?" John asked, rolling his eyes at her. By promising that everyone can purchase the greatest and most authentic items here." Stella,"... no wonder the profit can be tens of millions of dollars a month, and it's still in season-off..." "What? By "tens of millions of dollars in profit," what do you mean?” "Nothing." Stella finally thought, "Let's head over to that mall. The items here are not inexpensive, by the way. Is it truly necessary to shell out so much cash for a dress? only for the occasion?" Stella could still recall breaking a skirt in the past. According to the waiter, the skirt had a value of almost $300,000. These people were incredibly wealthy, as evidenced by the hundreds of thousands of dollars they spent on a skirt for an occasion. "It's alright. I believe attending an event is worth spending tens of thousands of dollars on a dress. Girls at this age s

    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

    185 By the time Stella opened her eyes, she felt so weak that she was unable to stand up. Glancing up, she saw everyone looking at her and it then it dawned on her what took place before. “It’s alright Stella, the police has taken Kelvin and his accomplice away.” Clarence said as Stella froze in fear. “Clarence I..” Stella wanted to talk but she wept instead. She had been so scared thinking Kelvin succeeded in taking advantage of her before dozing off, but now that Clarence had told her that Kelvin got caught, she heaved a sign of relived. Clarence then held her arms and said, “in the past I used to believe that you had only become a substitute bride and got married to me because of my money, and I hated you for that. But now I know the reason why you got married to me in the first place. I also accused you of seducing men, and did other things to test you and see if you’ll truly pass my test and you did,” “So But today, I want to reveal the secret that I had kept a long t

    184 "You can't get away." Kelvin put his hand on hers and held her slender wrist. It was vulgar because he dropped his with deliberateness. "Everyone is at the banquet, and there will be more fantastic events following the swimming competition. Nobody is going to come save you, not even if you flee. Accepting me will ensure that I treat you gently." "Let me go!" Stella gave him a firm handshake and took a few backward steps. What had gone wrong with her? Why did her hands and legs lack strength? Her beautiful cheeks were growing redder and redder as she stared at her shaking fingers. She felt as though a constant stream of hot air was emerging from her stomach. It was recognizable. Just like the time Flynn took her away and locked her in the room! Was she drugged once more? The instant this thought crossed her mind, she became desperate. “I tried to convince you to be with me, Stella, but you refused, so I had to do this, you know. I really enjoy you. I promise that no

    With a blush on his face, Zach candidly explained to Stella. “Zach Filler is my name, and I am FIL Group's only son. Playing baseball and racing are my pastimes. I'd like to become friends with you." Stella, "........ John, "..." Riley pouted and uttered a sardonic, "FIL Group? Who believe you to be? Do you want to become our friends? Examine your deservingness." Everyone's face changed at the words. Zach looked at Riley , his face going pale and him frozen in place. Even though Stella didn't want to listen to him, she glanced at Riley in shock because she found Riley’s remarks to be too harsh and unbelievable. Riley believed she had a lot of respect since she came into the Red family. She was always haughty and in charge. People dared not touch her because she was true to herself. She always pretended to be a refined lady in front of Stella, but when she saw Zach, she forgot. Riley gave a gentle grin as she considered this. "Lala, I apologize for what I said. I simply p

    The game started shortly after the minutes passed. Many girls applied for the girl competition after learning that the winner would receive surprise awards. Nara and Lily both applied for it. They returned and noticed Stella sitting there, so they had to come over and say a few snarky things. “This guy is new to our department, right? Why remain in a daze here?" “Yes, how about entering the competition? People such as yourself shouldn't be the most forceful, right?” With a fixed gaze, John asked, "What do you want?" "Nothing, just to see her." "Are you sure you won't apply for it?" Staring at Stella, Lily questioned. Stella gave her a quick glance. "Is there a rule that I must attend?" "You!" Lily felt enraged. At first, she believed there was a chance to hurt her, but she decided not to take part. “How much does it concern you if she chooses not to participate? You are welcome to participate. With all the others, why even bother?" John furiously stared at the two w

    With this thought in mind, Stella closed her eyes and gazed silently at the glistening water. "Sorry, I didn't think that much..." Riley gave a mortifying little smile. With a snort and a mumble about having a lousy idea, John turned to face Stella and behaving like an antipath. "Charge up your phone so we can take pictures later when they are in competition." Riley asked as she had an epiphany, "Will everyone be present when the competition is on?" "Yes, everyone will come, and there will be judges," John said with a nod. "Are only men allowed to compete?" John turned to face Riley and asked, "What do you mean?" "I mean, men can compete, so can we girls." With a brilliant light in her eyes, Joh said, "Yes, but... They didn't make such arrangements and girls couldn't attend." "Isn't that easy?" Riley grinned, reached across to take Stella’s arm, and waved to him nearby, "Mr. Jude!" Riley’s cry caught other people's attention, and Jude turned to face her. His eyes were

    Clarence gave her a feral look as he stared. She bit her lip and squinted, saying, "No!" "Do you want to walk around dressed like that?" Her neck was long and fair; she straightened her waist and lifted her chin slightly. "This is how everyone dresses. Why isn't one able to? Since you consider me to be a wantonly woman and you dislike whatever I wear. So why should it matter to me what you think?" Clarence scowled. After saying these things, she turned around and walked away, carefully lowering the shawl to reveal her lovely shoulders. Joseph says, "....." She had a tiger on her back! Clarence’s hands were clinched into fists, and his breath turned chilly. He cast a sardonic glance at that mysterious figure. "Mr. Conrad..... Shall we... bring Mrs. Conrad back?" stammered Joseph , standing behind him. "Who gave you permission to call her that?" "Did I make a mistake?" Joseph asked, swallowing a mouthful of spittle anxiously. When he addressed her as Mrs. Conrad in fron

    "Zach Filler, enough. Do you think she is an ordinary woman? She stands together with Miss Red," Zavi remarked. “We can't afford to provoke her, even though she might be a group member's kid." They were a bunch of mostly womanizing individuals. They only played with ladies who lacked wealth and influence since those things could always be resolved with money. They followed regulations. They did not play with wealthy ladies, in contrast to Flynn Andrew, who, as you may recall, "got destroyed by playing with rich women." Although the Andrew Group held significant power in B City, it was eventually eliminated. “ How come we haven't seen her previously if she was a group member's daughter? It was an unknown group, even though she is." "Simple, investigate her." Stella located a seat and wrapped the shawl snugly around her. Riley could not resist making fun of her. What makes you so timid? The purpose of the clothing was to be worn and displayed to others. What is the cover art fo

    That final comment seemed almost like a question. Stella had never seen Riley so dominant that she wasn't sure if her feelings were justified. After some while, Stella gave her a look. "Ri, what's wrong with you?" After hearing that, Riley abruptly regained consciousness and realized she was overexcited. She scoffed, dropped her eyes, and shook her head. "What's the matter with me? I have revealed the truth to you. Why? I'm hoping you can leave this situation as quickly as possible. But even though he was directly in front of you, you were too afraid to acknowledge or even speak about it. I wonder if you like Clarence, but I'm not sure what's on your mind." "Actually... I don't know." Stella’s cast her gaze down, gloomy. "I don't think I should like him, but..." Riley worried when she saw her entangled. Was her admiration for Clarence genuine? "However, what? Do you not see that? He's not at all fond of you." Riley realized she had said something unguarded and regretted

    Holding a box, Stella stood at the company's door, waiting for Riley. Riley unlocked Clarence’s car and shoved him down as it came to a halt. With a smile, she asked, "Lala, what is your hand?" Stella experienced a vision similar to a sharp knife striking her body as she spoke. Clarence’s sight was as horrifying as a deadly serpent, causing her to shrink backward and clutch the box firmly in her breast. Clarence saw this as a subliminal action, yet she still treated the box as a prize. She had nothing when she got in the car, but when she got out, she had a box. What was meant by that? What a considerate woman, oh. "Nothing." Riley smiled, moved closer to Stella, and shoved Clarence forward as Stella clutched the bag tightly and said. Stella could feel Clarence’s icy breath all over her. She retreated a step, attempting to pull herself from the embrace of his icy breath. “Is that a gift from Jude, Stella? You entered the automobile without bringing this box?" Stella’s fac
