His only woman? Stella could barely contain her derision. Did Weston really think that she’d believe that? If she was his only woman, then how did Guinevere’s child come about?Not only was Weston disrespecting her, he really took her for a fool.“I have no intention to interfere with your private affairs,” she told him, looking straight into his eyes. “You can have however many women as you please, so… can you please not interfere with my work?”As soon as she said that, the atmosphere grew tense. The remaining warmth on Weston’s face disappeared completely and his eyes turned icy cold.“Did you bring this whole thing up just so I would agree to let you work?” he asked, his voice brimming with threats.“Yes,” Stella admitted, bracing for the worst.She then heard Weston’s cold, mirthless laugh.“Go on, then,” he said. “Tell me what sort of work this is, that you’ve risked everything for.”Stella had wanted to hide the truth for a little longer, but she could tell from his ex

Stella appeared calm and complying, but her heart was filled with debilitating sorrow.If she could really always get her way, she wouldn’t be here with Weston, practically imprisoned by him.… Though Weston did not explicitly agree to let her act in the movie, she could guess from his actions that he would condone it, at least for the time being.The next morning, Stella got up and sent Weston off to work as usual. She then quickly got to the film set afterward.Because she’d delayed the filming progress yesterday, Bradley Lane was a little nasty when he saw her coming.“It was your first day yesterday and you’ve already asked for a leave,” he sneered. “That was pretty bold of you, don’t you think?”“I’m so sorry,” Stella bowed humbly, feeling very guilty. “I really am! Something came up and I absolutely couldn’t make it here yesterday. I’m terribly sorry! I’ll try my best to catch up with the schedule from now on.”Bradley could tell that she was being sincere, so he didn’t

“That’s enough,” Caspian told his manager. “Find me a quiet place to cool off. Bradley yelled his head off at me just now…”“Oh, I wouldn’t worry about that, Caspian!” the manager consoled. “You know Bradley yells at everyone. Your acting just now was perfectly fine. I’m sure he was angry at something else…”Meanwhile, Stella was leafing through the script alone in a deserted corner. She’d been through her lines a few times now, trying her hardest to get into character. The problem was that none of the scenes that she would be filming today were emotional. On the surface, it would seem that there was no need to get in the zone to film these scenes, but in fact, it was mundane scenes like these that were the greatest test of an actor’s skills. She had to look, sound, and act natural, and couldn’t appear as though she was performing in front of a camera. This was no mean feat for a new actor.Soon afterward, Bradley was done shooting two scenes and sent his assistant over to get Ste

Stella saw the security guards approaching, so she shouted, “This woman is trying to hurt me! Take her away!”“Go on if you dare!” Mrs. Smith taunted. “I haven’t done a single thing! I’m only here to say my piece!”She then pointed squarely at Stella and added, “Instead of taking me away, why don’t you drag away this vile, shameless, debauched woman who’s going around seducing married men?!”Stella was sure that there must have been some kind of misunderstanding, but being brandished with names as such still drained all the color from her face.“...Mrs. Smith,” she pleaded. “You can ask your daughter, and she’ll tell you I’ve never had anything to do with your husband. I have only been her tutor! She’s the one I spend most of my time with! She’ll know if I ever did anything out of line!”What Stella said made some sense, but Mrs. Smith remained suspicious of her.“Look,” Stella pulled out her phone and showed Mrs. Smith her own phone number. “Why don’t you send a text message to

Stella nodded at Mrs. Smith without showing any emotions.Mrs. Smith felt awkward, but she said nothing. She swept a glance over the crowd and quickly dragged Joyce away.The crowd soon dispersed, leaving only Yvonne and Stella there.“Are you okay?” Yvonne asked Stella with concern.“I’m okay,” Stella replied with a smile. “I just feel bad for causing you such huge trouble on the last day…”“But none of this is your fault!” Yvonne interrupted her, frowning. “But I really can’t believe that Joyce would sneak behind my back and hook up with Mr. Smith! I thought Mr. Smith was especially close with that secretary of his!”If Mr. Smith hadn’t been so fond of hiring pretty women who were only good in bed and not at their job, Stella wouldn’t have been mistakenly called to Lowe Garden. If that incident hadn’t happened, Yvonne wouldn’t have made a special arrangement to get Stella to work as Ruby’s private tutor. It was precisely this special treatment that triggered Joyce’s resentmen
